WE MADE IT(A POEM WRITTEN BY MKHWANANZI MTHANDAZO)
WE MADE IT MY DEAR FRIENDS
...
If I die today.
Just put my body on a bed to lay.
Neither weep nor cry for me in vain.
Do not sorrow nor be in pain.
...
A gentle soul, a loving heart,
My mother, a work of art.
With kindness, care, and devotion true,
She guides me through all I do.
...
My soul, a dying ember,
Fading fast, with each passing December.
Once ablaze, with passion and fire,
Now reduced to ash, my heart's desire.
...
Beware youths, listen to the warning call,
You're speeding down the highway, to a fatal fall,
The road is paved with temptation, and destruction's near,
Don't let the devil's whispers, lead you to the precipice, my dear.
...
