AN EPITAPH TO CLEOPATRA

By Norah -
Once I be held her face in suffering, twice in consternation and countless in joy.
Whom amongst us mortals suffer in Faith? Whose  mourns hurts with joy? Cleopatra Cleopatra like a chant is forever imprinted in our hearts, your strength and smile a remnant of all that which is godly.

*PATHWAY TO BEYOND*

do you ever wonder on what's  on the other side..
do you ponder on its big mysteries. ...
what lies in wait when we cross to the vale beyond...
is it the temples of Valhalla. ..or the  pristine towers of Beulah ..
it's only through death we can get there...
it's only sure path...the dreary icy grips of death. 
a journey of no return ...a place of no descend.
Cleo the Word has cleared your path...and only rest shall you fine

*TO SHE WHO BELIEVED*

Till the very end she believed...
at the very peak she smiled..
Cleo ..fierce in spirit..abundant in hope.
to she who always believed.


*IN A TUNNEL*

Darkness wherever I turn...
clarity an absent force..
serenity my potent prayer. .
this world is a tunnel.
a twining twisting labyrinth with a dubious layout.

help! help! I cry out ...
the echoes a stinging slap to the ear...
help! help! I call out ..
my voice a wasted thread of to hear
come! come! i beckon to the Lord...
come! oh come for I can only call Lord. .

in a tunnel trying to find light
in anguish praying for might
Lord help ! For in thee only we trust...

The crackling and cackling of sticks burning The distant sounds of owls hooting Children, parents attentively listening To the old man quietly speaking Complaints unheard even with insects biting campfire storytelling Shivers unseen with the wind blowing All are sitting with the fire blazing Listening to that old man talking Stories of time past, the future bringing Lores as old as the oroko spilling Tension in all sweetly sweeping Even as the old man is coughing It is the now, the future coming From the campfire, the words whispering For our traditions keep changing But old men will always keep telling

By Norah -
Makang Norah She works, She Thrives, She Toils She Weeds, She Plants the Soil Underpaid, Overworked, Under Looked From the depth, She paves the Lane A tunnel spiraling towards Day She is Africa, Its She in Africa.
