The Karongos and the Akunos
I saw two couples
Exchanging notes in the wild
The Karongos and the Akunos
Leaning on the ecstatic decor
Natural picturesque
Reminiscent of the classic Machu Picchu befitting the buoyant love in the skies.
Shakespeare retired too soon
While authors of love
Were eating the marvels of nature.
Lend me his pen, before the ink dries. Ring the bells and call in Pavlov.
Come then for richness,
Now that it's found it the soul.
Just like the springs hide in the rocks but mine the fresh water.
Come Michelangelo too
Curve the words on the rocks.
The unsung lyrics for Solomon.
Let the chapter then read
The Akunos and Karongos
Untamed in the boughs!
