To the Darkened

To the Darkened

What happened?
 to that sweet voice,
 those of the great States men;
I.K Musazi, Apollo M.O, Grace Imbingira

those that!
Engineered, ostracized, defiance and rejection.
Through the streets of Kampala-mukkade,
Yet with an enthusiasm of high fledged patriotism spirit
Embedded, and flourished in their hearts
Those who erected the concrete foundations...
By whom the national anthems, were composed, 
R.I.P  G.W. Kakoma,

Those, who highlighted the values of integrity,
Eliminated mediocrity and blurred the verses
Of nationalism, to all nationalists
The phrases were articulate with sweet scented  songs to the ears,
Of men, who truly were ready grasped them, swooping
Their delightful speeches.

For the times;
Are but a rift and narrow straight 
As we stand in a bliss.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
