NDOU ROLIVHUWA

The Guava\'s Golden glow

 

In guava\'s golden glow, I climbed with fire

But birds had savored, leaving naught but desire

I descended slow, with sorrow\'s heavy weight

When hidden wasps, in wrath, did stormy fate

 

Their stinging fury, I fled with frantic pace

And fell on rocks, with a bruised and tender face

The pebbles sharp, like tiny daggers did pierce

And in my pain, a lesson did take its place

 

That nature\'s beauty, with caution must be gained

And hidden dangers, with reverence maintained

Yet still I dream, of guava\'s sweet embrace

Though wisdom\'s lessons, now temper my eager pace
