I recently went on a YSES challenge, trip to South Africa, naturally there was a lot of inspiration, and here a two of the poems i wrote. Comment if you want to say anything! :)
Another Fire
Theres a unburning log pile in front of me
fresh for a new night, shaved from a unsuspecting tree.
the heat of the sun domineers the opening,
beating last nights eating flames, by more than three.
This roaring far off orb,
has sent the humans away, and is free,
to blare down on the hot grainy sand.
Last nights roaring heat had another philosophy,
one to bring people together,
warm the weary cooling sand,
and offer a welcoming, if trembling hand.
Ex
The Mountains of Moholoholo
The sun blares on their skin,
they seem red, green, brown,
none of them a twin,
all different, their crevases,
a flaw or a shelf.
Nothing is ever a kin,
to the random beauty of nature itself.
Ex
