I AM A POEM

I AM A POEM 1999 (Eastern Cape)



I'M A POEM_by Abongile
Mbobo

Listen to me
I'm a fine lyrical 
lines of melody 
Singing songs of heaven
to headless lives
whose faces wear
various kinds of sorrow
everyday like nose mask
in corona virus era.

Look at me.
I'm an interesting verse,
of celestial nature.
Revealing lights of, my poet 
to the blind.
Whose open eyes
can only see.
Within their stomach.
Season after season.

I'm a poem of unique lines.
and rymical rhyeme.
showing the theme of poetry.
From crown to foot.
portraying his wonders.
Hence my soul and skin
as an art illuminates its artist.
To the spenders of life
Take a feel of me,
a beautiful sight of nature,
Multi-colours of heaven's glory.

Lovable to every heart
looking exactly as my father
inward outward like a two-faced coin, with creative uniqueness
Read me again; get the message.
I'm a poem of God.
