Rwanda Poems - Poems about Rwanda

ECHOES OF RWANDA

Beauty, they say, comes with time
Even scars fade, and what was once ugly
Now seems fine.  
Though torn and shattered years ago
Rwanda, like a new moon
Glows with a quiet, radiant light.

Yet, if you listen closely
You can still hear the echoes—  
The haunting cries of Tutsis, Hutus
Lingering in the wind.  
When the rains arrive,

Free-wheeling Through Africa

Just climb onto the back of my Harley
And we shall ride to the songs of Bob Marley,
   In no time at all
   We'll be in Senegal,
Though I might stop for lunch in Kigali.

HYPOCRITE LEADERS

hypocrite leaders continue to bite other Africans daily.
as the rebels M23 "Rwanda defence force" bombed
bases of burudian peace soldiers 
in DRCongo wantonly. 
many people astonished 
and claimed that Kenyan,  
Ugandan and 
South Sudanese soldiers 
of East African 
Community 
are with the rebels M23 to divide  
DRCongo into many countries. 
It seemed as burudian

Implication of the French Military In the Genocide of Rwanda

French military in the genocide of rwanda, 
When African youths claim the departure of European militaries  because of atrocities in Africa. 
In 1994 when rwandan tutsi rebels were in negotiation 
with the rwandan government ,french soldiers
were sent for so called  protection 
which was a special criminal mission 
to destabilise central Africa region 
and ended up 

Rwanda African Sunset

Rwanda’s African sunset is pulsing with charm
The sun glides away in her entirety here
Waving goodbye to a lone Baobab tree
Could it ever get any prettier? Probably not.

God Bless Rwanda

Beautiful land, hills, and valleys and even the lakes,
Everything so attractive to fell in love with,
My nation so peaceful with the nice people all around,
Unity, harmony and understanding each other are our major keys.

Our leaders are the kings and queens of centuries,
They feel worried when they see us living miserably and suffering,
God gave my republic

Kigali, In I Am

Kigali! You’re a dream differed
          An indefinite dream for unkeyed
          You break too many hearts
          Heal too many souls abruptly
        

Gisenyi ,Rwanda

One day, i will fly to the most beautifull hills
where all will be as green as natural
where the wind will run through my face
in a welcoming hymn just to put me at ease

i will sit in the sand looking to the sky 
the one full of stars just near the beach
feeling the breeze and hearing

On the Moon of Rwanda

It begins as a melt
On the Moon of Rwanda
It ends on the Delta of Civilisation

Listening To Rwanda Genocide

In your azure eyes
I was teaching myself:
how to drown. What a nodal  
agency to receive the award.

The ailing moon 
will not come to my rescue.
The seized cloud had failed
to cry –

embarrassing the sidewalks. An
unfathomable legend.
A bloated name becomes the
mother of rapes.  

At stake were all the crutches.
The tribal stain had a stark
reality. The

Rwanda


And man will fight with murder and destruction
When peace and negotiation can go no further
Heaven shed many tears; to see that man
Does not even try to find peace if he can

For man has turned against each other
Heaven is full of sadness; and brother against brother
Humanity await his greatest fall
While heaven pray for us all

Remembering Rwanda

Before the blast in April's darkened sky. . .  
before the electrifying surge of insurgency -
when trucks and tanks were used to block the roads, and
when men and even boys were sought to aid in one malicious purpose. . .
before the rampant slaughter - 
the raining of machetes down on flesh and bones 
and

They Wonder In Rwanda Forest

They mere-go-round in 
fermented anger
like an underground tormented 
ghost

wondering in fomented 
questions 
why are they kept under?

To undergo a wonder test 
without rest

They get filled with uncooked 
ego  
because the thunder why 
numerous wonder is been 
performed by western *****'s

In the mist of this
They limp and mix temper with 
pamper 
And get chimp fixed

Rwanda Wrongs

In 1957, there existed a plan
To rid Rwanda of the Tutsi clan
Power they had, too much for one side
The foundation for, future Genocide
 
1960, the monarchy was gone
Will both sides sing the same song
Sadly not as the persecutions start
Ripping this African country apart
 
1973, under a new regime
Juvénal Habyarimana promised restrain
