Africa My Flavor Poem by Affiah Odhiambo

Africa tantalizing my senses
my sunny slice of paradise
laced with purple honey.

Africa black fabric of vibrancy
intense with beaded texture
defining my swirl, my elegance.

Oh Africa, the calling of the drums
Boom! Boom! beats of bliss
flowing my sway, my way.

Africa the heartbeat of creation
fresh scent of humanity
brewing my warmth, my pride.

Oh Africa! an experience so raw,
yet also as ripe
savoring Africa, my flavor!
