Analysis of In love straight away!
GIDRAF MWANGI 1992 (Murang'a)
A morn worth reckoning
In a misty landscape looking cool
With its trees swaying
When the breeze whistled
Leaving on its path a touch of cold
In the bush by the path I laid
Watching dawn in its most splendid
Wriggling through my youthful mind
And there you appeared
Looking like a rose, freshly picked
With a pot balanced on your head
That was erect, standing proud
You walked like a queen
With legs only fit to walk in heaven
With a swing of your hips
That left me with a stun
I could see your smile, beaming
Bright like the sun!
You kept my gaze boring into you steadily
My mind out of this world
Trying to discern your beauty!
You locked my mind with your figure so lovely
And my heart you imprisoned with your love, honey
I fell head over heels in love with you,
Straight away!
