charles okoth Poems

How unworthy art thou
That ye are begot to be unfit for love
That at thy sight love indiscriminately hideths
Oh son of man, that thy words patronize love
...

Erected several inches above six,
Shoulders as broad as the earth's scope,
Eyes as white as a sheet - and intense,
A smile so vivid and dimples so deep,
...

Ye whom I chanced on while on the journey,
Remarkable a smile’s what thou perceived,
Complete with two dimples so profound,
And teeth so white and as marble precious,
...

As much a thought a return unto clay to mine’s
merely indifferent,
My heart’s sole thirst is that not the grim death
shalt stop its beat,
...
