There She Is Poem by KUTLWANO SONJI NOBLE ONE NKWE

There She Is



How do I introduce the shout of a soul?
Whose hole was stole to be whole
Without a leak
Which words do I pick?
And if the struggle comes from word picking will you ever hear out
The sound so loud that is supposed to abound
To your hearing about
I doubt
Anyway
It’s a task
Of a poet to mask
How one did bask
To a sunny day
From her pond eyes you can see Sahara and Gobi standing in patches
Sometimes she cries tears of a crocodile in scrutiny she hides of joy
Principalities and powers knows what they can’t destroy
And that is her possession
Her smile speaks of her succession
The wound in her life is healed with no scars in open
To be exact they are not hidden and that is the token
A promise and a sign proving her glory fashioned with
You can hear her say I can breath
The breath of freshness
Fairy now she is like the Cinderella princess
If lack was cast unto her then she broke the spell
As well, “well” the interchangeable word she can spell
Though scholars says the word can be used to compromise
From her lap it screams to the world she did arise
There she is competing with Mount Everest, Kilimanjaro
Standing tall with prideful looks.
