AFRICA

 

Can you hear my voice

calling

through the veil of time?

 

In dreams

I sense

a dark eternal pulse

still pounding

still living

 

I wish for my home

in a lion colored land

forgotten memories

link me to the tapestries

 

of bright colors

by a river

a child heavy

on my back

women's voices

fill the air

 

in lost Africa.

 

I am the forgotten mother

and the captive daughter

vanquished by storms

and sails that filled the sky

 

let me come home

 

this daughter lives now

in white skin

but I know my sisters

through our timeless songs.

 

we are here

 

listen for our voices

as you stand by the river

listen for our voices

 

we survived
