Wailing Souls Poem by Caleb Tukahiirwa

Down in far lands of wonder world,
A land was rejected, lost for ages,
This were once lay a wishful angel,
Sad, but a beauty at heart and soul
That wished for one thing in her life;
A touch to wash away her painful scars,
Scars that have haunted her through,
One to teach her, to open her wings wide,
Help her escape the bounds built by her nest
So to fly, feel the fresh peaceful airs around.
This, a warmth only that’s deep with in
Then see the world beyond her misery,
Walk the fields with sandals on her feet,
Climb the hills to a strong stretched hand
Travel with her, as her shoulder to lean on
And least have a nut to feed on each day.
Unfortunately never did this come to pass
She’s now gone, gone away for good
But her wish lives on through times,
For she never was one, it was them
It still lives with in many hearts like hers
That each day awake to that same pain,
Looking out in the skies, if it may shine
Never letting it die from them, the wish
The one thing they still own with in them,
They wait on today for you and me.
