Zimbabwe Poems - Poems about Zimbabwe

**The Next Zimbabwe: A Call to Rise** In lands where dreams were forged in fire, A tale of strength, of fierce desire, From ashes of despair, they’ve learned to climb, Zimbabwe’s spirit soaring through the sands of time. A currency’s fall, a lesson steep, Where once was value, now shadows creep. Yet...

I refuse to mourn Your death Mr. Dead President! I refuse to sit here And pretend to have forgotten How much your own people Waited to experience the sweetness Of a time like this!

30 possible destinations. Outstanding in a variety of ways. 12 stood out immediately. Kindness meant we would listen to everyone’s ideas. 25 women thought they might go. Did anyone think of Belgium?

I was on top of his head. An answer to a hairy I a dumping space. I have seen him. An answer to blind eyes. I have heard the voice. An answer to deaf. Even if we woke up, we can testify. Words from the dead. All around the world are watching. For the ears...

Plucked i am, From the flowering mopane By the mother of the mischievous ones, Only to be reduced To a reproving stick. Safe and secure i am, Or rather i think i am In my seemingly fortified pod. Later disposed into the arid savannah Where the hooves of migrating buffaloes Forcibly crush me out Seeding me into the infertile sands. Scorched by the tropical heat Patiently i wait, For...

But once this African came into power, The whole country turned sour. Don’t get me wrong not all Africans are bad, I...
