The Adventure Of Love Mankind Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Love Mankind was born out of love
The spitting image of his father
He was groomed and nurtured
By the hands of his father
He was gifted and talented
Possessing a bag full of special gifts
The gift of love was the greatest of them all

Love Mankind drifted away from his father
Exploring the secrets of the universe
Pondering on the origin of life
He discovered science
A toolbox from his father’s workshop
And started experimenting with scientific tools
To uncover the blanket of life
He dug deep into the human body
And discovered the genome
The blueprint of life

Love Mankind played with his newfound toy
Science became his obsession
His blade used to cut through the unknown
Dissecting the mysterious nature of the universe
The unending cosmic sail thrilled him
The mysterious chains at the core of cells thrilled him
The origin of Mankind was lost to him
He lost himself in this playground
Obsessed by the tiny grains in his father’s garden
