Great poem. One of the best of 2018' in my opinion. Well deserved 'POD'. I've never viisited Africa, but when I do, I will ask for a 'Tusker!

There are certain specialties, may be dishes, places or people for which a country is known. It is the Tusker beer for Kenya. It is Kenya's premium beer since 1922. Great. You enjoyed your games inhaling its smell. Enjoyed the poem. Then there's a smell for which I hungered Since I was only four, It was the clubhouse tang of Tusker Lager coming through the floor....is very nice. Thanks for sharing such a well crafted and interesting poem. Deserved to be poem of the day. Congrats.

Africa! ! ! The smell of wood smoke! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
