I am what remained after the storm
Desmond muzite 2002 (Rusape)
I am what remained after the storm,
A tree that stood tall, weathered and worn.
The winds howled and the rain poured,
But I held my ground, never once deplored.
The storm raged on, day and night,
But I stood firm, with all my might.
The lightning struck and the thunder roared,
But I held my ground, never once ignored.
The storm has passed, the skies are clear,
And I stand here, without any fear.
For I am what remained after the storm,
A tree that stood tall, weathered and worn.
