The Viness

I am nature, and I am powerful,

Declared a small god, I am a growing goddess.
I have grown at the foot of the mountain called an Island in the Sky,

Mulanje mountain, you are my legacy, left behind by my forefathers.
I have evolved and creeped upon the precious stones of Kilimanjaro,

Glamourous, like sapphire.
I have experienced world war 2,

I have seen the struggle of many people,
I am a vine that has survived from one generation to the next.

My roots have grown deep into the earth,

I have grown through deserts,

I have grown under the River Nile.

I make my way up the Eifle tower,
I have navigated the oceans, creeped across to the americas.
I have not loathed lady liberty, but i have searchd and covered her torch.
I am a goddess, I do not search to find, I search to entertwine the world,

I have no entourage, I am the globes enamel,

travelling to horizons undiscovered,

I have blossomed and I am blossoming,

I am the viness.
