Izintombi Zamambo Poet Free verse

Colorful Nights

Early nights call upon adventurous times,
we await with our plans left to execute.
Too old to trick, 
yet we pride ourselves in treats,
as we drive through silent streets 
before darkness reigns.
The moon would visit every now and then,
to bare witness to our mischief on display.
We fistfight with food, whistle to trees,
surround ourselves with music, 
movie dates under duvets, 
as stars twinkle twinkle away.
Chosen by fate, we always travel in pairs,
whichever the location, 
we colour the world however we please.
Days go by faster, 
aging shall come sooner or later,
but a life worth loving, we shall live.

Beata Agustin November 11, 2022 at 4:38 AM Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, may I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. God bless you. Izintombi Zamambo November 11, 2022 at 4:58 AM Just on Monday I had this session with an interview panel that seemed like a church service, now this. I'm not sure what is going on but I'm feeling like something is coming. Thank you for this. God bless you!!!
