Naked People

Garth Rakumakoe

Somehow I've always been drawn

to naked people

with naked hearts

 

Those not dressed

with the artificials of this world

not embellished with pride

disarmed of self preservation

vanity and all else

-

I find they are simple

simple, as taking a breath

 

These barefoot wayfarers

 always stand out to me

in their admirable humility

They are my tribe

for they feel natural

and genuine against my skin

like rose gold cashmere

in strands of natural hair

-

They embody evermore rarities

to which my being aspires

in their virtuous accessibilities

that ever appear

tried and tested

and never tiring

    You are truly a poet after my own naked heart! PS I never wear shoes except at weddings and funerals... sometimes.

      Thank you so much, fellow poet for the kind visit and humility of heart. It is much much appreciated.
