A Rumble

Meshack Bwoyele Keya 1960 (Vihiga)



My perception perceives a rumbling rumble

How I wish it was a grumbling grumble?

The rubles of the marbles keeps burbling in a bubble

That someone keeps stumbling in a stumble

Never stumble, grumble or mumble

Normally the rumbling will stop

The grumbling will be no more

And you won't mumble due to the stumble.

By Meshack Bwoyele keya
