Serengeti

Endless Plains

How you open so wide

Your arms like vast love

Like a symphony

Or the palm of peace

Or something to write home about

All epic and migration on mass

Of wildebeests in thirsty feits

To drive on forwards  

The great Stampeed

Of visceral

Creation

and

Dotted too

Or punctuated with the

The exclamation mark

Of sweet

Gazelle’s

In a

Pronking leap frog

elegant dance.

Oh Endless plains

Kenya dances

In your Serengeti smile

Like summer fruits

And rich spices

Where the lions

Are proud and roar

From the rooftop

Of a Rocky outcrop

I am home

I am home.

Oh beauty

Beauty

the River

Curves

and

Undulates

The land

In swaying

Hips

Divine...

To the call of

Birds

on the wings of

Of a majestic

Airy Feast of flight

Like  icream clouds

With feathery toppings

And even the grace

Of giraffes look up

And crane their

Glorous necks ot see

You.

Endless plains

Abundant life

You are the flavour

Of remembering why

And the scent  of  

natural wonders

The touch of a million

Threads

The look of love

and

The sound of

Glory.
