Gusii Girl Poem by Bieze Josphat

Her eyes shine bright
Like fireflies in the night.
Her stare
Choke me like 'amanyagwari'

Her teeth are white
Like 'amandegere'
And the gap between her incisors
Is the narrow-gate to heaven.

Her neck is long
Like a crane bird
It can support
The largest village pot

OBornfied of Gusii
How pretty you are
That wilted banana leaves
Spring to life at your touch
I halt, I halt
For space i lack to describe
The bornfied Gusii.
