My Name is
by Nana Asaase(Philip Boakye Dua Oyinka)
I am a seed of potent dreams and promises
Planted in a green desert;
A lonely dark cloud
Over an anxious dry plain;
A harvest of burdened expectancy.
I am a drop of living water
To the creaky limbs of a stranded warrior;
The fat sweat on a skinny brow;
The hope of a widow forest;
LET THIS TREE REMAIN!!!
Planted in a green desert;
A lonely dark cloud
Over an anxious dry plain;
A harvest of burdened expectancy.
I am a drop of living water
To the creaky limbs of a stranded warrior;
The fat sweat on a skinny brow;
The hope of a widow forest;
LET THIS TREE REMAIN!!!
"The boast of the goat lives on beyond the fire, the pot and the soup".....
