Makeda Browne Poems

I don't have to be an einstein

And what did i see

Staring at me.

And as i strained my ear
I can hear the whispers
I can see a tear.

Shaped like a tree?

When you look at the sky
What do you see?
Do you see a cloud
Shaped like a tree?

No sound
Just the whistle of the wind on th grass
Feel its gentle blow pass
No sound

Over San Fernando Hill
I see a fog below
The little cars go passing
While their numbers quickly grow
