A burning desire to capture and bottle the passing breeze; to articulate the unspoken; to describe the seasons of the coming waves; to dress the scents of the hidden encounters; to perpetuate the dying drama; and to warn of the approaching fury of the unknown. On this adventure, you are invited to share with me, my cup of tea.

Yesterday's Seeds Today's Harvests
Yesterday they laughed at me to scorn When I attempted to warn them of the sting Underneath the bonnets of the wayward skirts
Today I saw them in town Grieving for one of their own Who was frozen in a horizontal pose Too late to change his prose
Uber perceptive Kwegyirba! Nobody learns anything these days. The degree of fatalism is simply shocking in the society. I have personally heard people say 'everybody will die so what difference does it make whether it is today or tomorrow'. It is so sad.
Yes Enkay. I certainly could not laugh though. In my heart I am still crying for the unnecessary deaths to stop. What can one do except to continue to hope and pray that we all come to realise that there is a merciless killer prowling around the block. SO TAKE EXTRA CARE!
