Kuku ble kuku, kuku ble kuku
It is morning, and fresh birds' songs
Twitting around that cold early morn
The birds twit and sing, singing and twitting
...

Come, come into the light
See, see the doves
Some white doves on sunshine padding
Their shadows sparkle on
...

The flowerily card arrived
With lipstick mark, stains
Telegraphing your roly-poly
Arousing thought, shared thoughts
...

and there, up and near, to behold
distinct on the horizon, the
cyclical smiles of the moon at dawn
...

Let's thankful be me
and appreciate
in good and in worse
a case may be
...

It's a two way traffic
those coming and those going
as they come
we celebrate
...

thick cloudy winds
this change again
the harmattan of change
and cries of pains
...

the cloud loud and dark it is
just like yesterday and turning into mish
here stand I at the riverside
dim, gleaming in the darkness of rain
...
