Sajdah Al-Riyami Poet Rhyme

Skeletons

I sit On a coach made of leather
......
While she sits on a dust of mud and feathers


I walk under the cool breeze of the sun
.....
While she hangs an empty bucket on her head for a run


I dust the crumbs of leftovers
...
While she feeds the peace of her slumber


I travelled on wings over the blue
..
While her living in time is but a flu

     

     Take my hand Africa
   Take Your skeletons With you
  And embrace hunger

Even in death
.

It amazes me ,sometimes, how I can pen down such thoughts! It must be the source of spirituality and wisdom within my soul. I love your poem, "Skeletons," it reminds me of the stark reality of Africa. May god bless you always. I wish you success in your poetry endeavors. Warm Regards, Andrew.
