Africa clinging to the pages ...



I climbed the narrow stair, past stilled carriage clocks -

The book waited for me -

The two glorious elephants -

Africa clinging to the pages -

My boyish dream to be an explorer -

Tracing rivers across beguiling maps -

Marvelling at the names of deserts -

Longing to see different stars -
