Warm Congratulations to the five poets listed below.

 

Enjoy!!

total blackout…

street lamps glow with

mating fireflies

Name: Ali Znaidi

Country: Tunisia

………..

 

the morning rain falls

endlessly hugging thy sleep

frozen ideas die

 

NAME: Andrew Herbert Omuna

Country: Uganda

………..

 

the wind plays

every tree sways to its song–

nature’s musical

 

Name: Praise Osawaru

Country: Nigeria

……….

 

delicate mounds

parting soil in the night

to die out soon

Name: Akello Charlotte

Country: Uganda

……….

 

ringed with its papers

and tracked like jailbird on bail

the immigrant lands…

Name: Adipo Sidang’

Country: Kenya

………
