Songs Of Love
I saw an African mahogany,
Bonny and so slim but
this, Brethens, breaths life.
Follow me to pluck the flora
Of no unlike-ness with rainbow
With pinkly frock like butterfly.
I speak of Indian mermaid
I met on my sirer's terrain
Here in Africa.
I longed to plant a kiss
On the ridges of her tiny lips,
On our remarkable bash.
