Giggle dear son so i could feel your warmth <br />cry dear rain and wash away my tears <br />breathe and blow oh wind, dry away my sweat <br />sing the lute songs oh birds and i shall go to sleep <br />wave your hands and fingers oh tress i will smile whole-day <br />stand firmly and still oh dear soil, i will step on you with dignity <br />laugh with your teeth outside oh sunshine, i will rejoice to to the light <br />dance the whole night dear stars, i will applaud wholeheartedly <br />gaze at me sleeping oh moon, i will open my eyes and smile back <br />oh sky be a blanket and i will cover myself till i perish <br />imply your white smile to me and i will blush to it oh clowds <br />oh fellow grass be my red-carpet and declare me the celebrity <br />repent, for the kingdom of nature is at hand <br />Obey! oh fellow humans<br /><br />Anele ''The African Son'' kaPotelwa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nature-speaks-4/
