The Herb

The herb
A plant of richness 
To  understand 
the mystery of the herb
Is the source of good health
Oh I love the herb
Give me the herb and 
let me dance with a long life


The herb
To understand 
The mystery of the herb 
Is a natural blessing to life
The herb is a gift from nature 
Like a rainbow full of colours
The herb grow in deferents colours
Some are red,green, purple, white, 
On and on
In defferent shapes 
and size they are found
it defers in flavour and smells
Oh I love the herb 
a gift of nature


The herb 
To understand 
the mystery of the herb
Is like a divine grace
It cure strange illness
It help to strengthen 
the weak bones
It protect the surface of the skin
From skins infection
It washes away all pollution
In the body
It improve life in a heavy way
How can you stay healthy
 with out the herb
Oh I love the herb
a gift from nature


The herb
You can cook the herb
You can eat the herb
You can apply it like 
a cream on a cut
The water of the herb 
Is like GOD water
It so powerful in protecting you 
From stress and sick beds
Oh I love the herb 
a gift from nature


The herb
To understand
 the mystery of the herb
Now in our generation is rare
As we advance 
With out moral values any more
All we do are just to civilisation 
Always in a rush to hear from the medical 
As we keep depending 
On morden day medication
We should not forget 
The miraculous mystery
Of 
The herb.

Hi mister Am sorry but this poem got notin to do with smokeing weed, in Africa we live more with herbs, herb is somany, have u ever hard of an harbalist, this people have the knowledge of herb, they are like medical doctors, they gave treatment with fresh herb, my grand mother is one of such people, when I write herb sorry I don't mean weed or marijuana, in Africa people use more of herb for illness unlike the western community, hope you understand me Richard.
