Pius Didier Poems

Today is our day
a day that succeeds yesterday
the day of the African man
that entails of the forbidden triumph
...

The horizon is beautiful
So the Labour of the teacher

The forest is thick
...

when I die a teacher
tell my wife I wasn't a blither
to re-dig and blip those contours
that I had opted for the community
...

It's an interesting story,
How manifested I left weary,
That time when we were young,
For I knew not how to clang.
...

Wait! Wait! Wait!
The clock hasn't yet stopped,
Though the mouth is dry and chopped,
But the ears are flat and open.
...

I am whom I am
My roots deep like a yam
Every new day in exuberance
Every moment is a good chance
...

Rest in peace Nick, my heart is full of ease
You taught me how to wait and wait, then sit and wait the whole day
With my head and toes tight, to sit and wait for my day
For I'm a rope long and wide, with a big empty knot on it
...

Like the cape ranges of the south,
We stand high amidst the east
With our peaks visible from west.
For their glacier is the "oasis of north"
...

Run run ruthless child
A mile away awaits your guard
Carry the crown besides you
For the path of righteous is due
...
