The Rose

The Rose*

by Emmanuel Otieno Obwanga

 

The wind blew ,

Trees that made it due,

Shackle shackle like spree,

The goose leapt with dew,

Cold and breezing,

Dancing with joy amazing,

The old man ,

Holding his gun,

Bold like gold,

Fought and wrote,

“My youth”

Strong and uncouth,

Still bright and clear,

Shine with beer,

That day stood to be told,

The Rose
