In My Places Poem by Sicelo Sithole

I have places where i keep my old pages
I have places where i earn my minimum wages
I have places that i own
I have places of my own
I have places that i go to whenever i need peace
Places that put my mind at ease
I have places that entertain my own loneliness and bore
Places along the bright coastal sides and sea shores
Within all of these places serene and true
I have never met a poet like you

Dedicated to Lunga Nxumalo, a poet i learned a lot from and a dear friend
