African Talisman

Down the steep mountains and into the slopes, Darting divine etched twixt duration and existence, There run the graceful gazelles and fiery antelopes, Until their breath retreat watching other presence. Wildebeests rushes by ceasing the opportunity to gain, Nature’s bare feet turning brown sand on the beach, Big pebbles not indelibly seen as the smallest sandy grain Leaving the prints in the ambiance of moments they reach. On naturally crafted street hides the African talisman, An indivisible Art where halo glows from a graceful arch, Sheen shine covering emblem moonlight glowing skin, Fears not the forces of evil camouflage on parade march. Lucky charm, African talisman within the veil well-armed Beyond this man is a distinctive phenomenal spirit, Striding out against human endurance already formed From the bloodline history, ancestral traits inherit. We of mortal multitude find ways to survive and strive, Sometimes the heart run, walk and mingle in the crowd, A silent portrait shroud the pride unfolding in the Hythe, The future is bright but the course takes a grim road.
