Eulogy For Wangari Maathai
Wangari Maathai is not dead
I roll back my tear
Peer from my window
Deep the grooming forest
Switch off my radio
Tear the headline
I refuse the epitaph
I write no word
Her monument must sprout
Beyond the canopy
She died to defend
Let Wangari not die
Mother of mother nature
Where she lives!
