Wilma Neels Poet Tanka

Twilight Fun Run

festive lights are on
time for the twilight fun run
anyone can enter
individual or groups
dressed in the weirdest attire

some walk and some run
some admire the city lights
prizes for best dressed
teams, assure a night of fun
in the name of charity...








*Another tradition in Cape Town,
a fun run after the festive lights are
switched on, people dress up
and have a blast all for charity...*

L'Nass Shango November 19, 2010 at 6:38 AM What time of year is this? I am so impressed, do you know I Zulu in my genes (but I am Jamaican)? What make you write ... what do you hope to achieve? Do you think writing comes out of a thing in us? ... I like so to begin open conversations.
