Rasheedah Yusuf Poem
MAMA NATURE
The leaves dancing to the tune of nature, Shedding her leaves on the earth
for survival,
Her breath I have perceived
Telling me that freedom is where I want to find it.
In her hands I have slept like a baby.
Has nature ever sang you a lullaby?
Swing by nature at morn and at hour
to exeprience slumber like the governor in his tower.
Pardon me,
but the Almighty has a good taste in colours,
The pitch are as blue as sea,
With tints of clours like that of a rainbow,
The sun as radiant has sunflower,
Now I see why a diva is always hot
With the sight of the blazing sunset, your jaws would drop.
The sight of the clouds, as beautiful as the wafting snow,
Always mesmerized with its artistic work
taking me on a journey out of this world.
Have you seen mother moon?
Always with an open room
Ready to accommodate any brood
Always there smiling at ere osupa
And her kids joins to play with the human kids?
As radiant as their mom
How cute,
The twinkle like diamonds
Stars!!
Beautiful things don't last forever
How sad!
The pain when you realise you have just little time left
To admire this beauty.
But who would leave first, Nature or me?
