Dreams Poem by Nndanduleni Nelson Nemaranzhe

My mind can't comprehend
My life keep following
My being keep asking
Wherever my dreams keep leading
Dreaming of super kids
Those who will be richly famous
Thinking of super life
Of leading all these projects
Known on all kinds of media
Dreaming of super family
Of love, wealth and abundance
And dream when I have an island
I think am blessed
Because of this wealthy gift
Got this eye of future
My dreams are pouring
Where is my wellingtons
I don't gallivant at all
Or gallop by night to pleasure land
My gallant nature
No gale to shift my attention
From my gab
Or my gala night.


It's a dream land
It's a picnic world
We wait not for holiday
My burger follow me on bed
The private jet is pretty
I melt not if it's too blazing
It's a spicy world
Couldn't be watered if it's too hot
It's a misty world
Could get more rigid when chilly
My cotton is too rocky
My fire is too icy
Life is what you think not of
You get what you desire
If you cease not brainstorming
Without blue funk
Furlough not
Life is better.






My jelly world
I am from Namibia
Desert ain't strange to me
I was built betwixt sand dunes
Rain is a strange voice to me
Thirst is my last fright
My eyes got sharpened
I sleep not at night
And try to slumber by noon
I keep revising my plans
I don't know how to escape
From my love for deserts
My wealth is my camels
And my Yankee town
And my bear feet
And my smart hounds
My miracle money.

What more do I long for?
When my dreams are written
And made known to all of ya'
But this strange Wasp
That stung at my neck back
And took all my hearing
And stopped my full sight
Now all I do so far
Is to take a nap
And dream a little bit more
And sense my way to destiny.
