Poems from Leonard Dabydeen
Come
home
tonight
sleep wtth me
loneliness hurts me
tomorrow is another day.
Light glows in the sea
Beaming from the deep, blue skies;
A bird waits on shore !
Where clouds drift
in silene across blue skies;
where sun spreads beaming light
over mountains yonder far;
where chidren cry in hunger...
You
begin
to ponder
wondering how
shadows move among us like a good friend.
Yesterday you gave me water to drink
I was thirsty
feeling...
Hungry
I need to eat
I am feeing so lost
my stomach is getting empty
starving !
