Storms in Africa (Part II)





Though I walk through

warm sands in Africa

winds will grow soon

to storms in Africa.



How far to go

I cannot say.

How many more

will journey this way?



Dark skies fall on

black earth and ivory.

Far from your sun

clouds now close over me.



How far to go

I cannot say.

How many more

will journey this way?



Storms have come!

rains wash the earth away

Dark skies fall down

into another day.

Rains have now come

from storms in Africa

Time will go on

through Storms in Africa
