Cleansing Rain
Passionate winds snake through the undulating trees
Sweet decay of elephant dung carries on the breeze
Scorching sunshine and shimmering heat
Pulse of Africa throbs beneath their feet
A small herd of elephants amble: muscular trunks held high
Billowing clouds hustle: raging across the sky
Elephants… powerful and majestic: light on their feet
Echoes of harmony where land and giants meet
Fold upon fold of wrinkles: Africa shaped ears fanned wide
Wearing coats of dignity and creamy tusks…their pride
Thunder roars: tensions run high
Lightening flashes..jagged across the angry sky
Stinging needle like rain falls…beautiful cleansing rain
Washing away the corruption: easing Africa’s pain
Spiderwebs sparkle like transparent lace
A warm wet breath blows in this magical place
An orchestra of crickets seduce the fading light
Earthy scents linger to welcome the night
Moon spills gently caressing the trees
A twinkling of stars peak and tease
Peace spreads it’s wings over Africa’s sunrise
Brushstrokes of fiery gold saturate the sky
Whispers of life celebrating the fresh new dawn
Anticipation hangs….an exciting new morn
Where there is life there is hope and we continue to fight
Wildlife guardians putting wrongs to right
The words are so amazing, brings back so many memories. Just love it.
Reminds me so of the African bush we all miss so much.
