Oh gosh! It is that time of the day again. <br />I am sitting here all alone <br />Yeah all alone and desolate <br />I am watching the sun go down <br />The evening is slowly creeping in <br />Gently covering the world around me <br />With its blanket of darkness. <br /> <br />I hear the sound of the birds <br />Chirping the daylight away <br />The call of the homecoming cows <br />Mooing to their loved ones to reassure <br />The frantic cry of the goats <br />Searching for their lively kids <br />But in my world I am all alone <br />Yeah! all alone and desolate. <br /> <br />The sky city is preparing for the night. <br />Here and there I can see the street lights <br />Shimmering and twinkling in the night breeze <br />Peeping shyly at the earth below <br />As if afraid to see my suffering <br />Yes! Afraid to see the shadows that fills my world <br />No light is shining through this darkness <br />Oh! I feel so alone, <br />Yeah! So alone and desolate<br /><br />Mpho Petrus Manwedi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alone-and-desolate/
