iv
still gentle mythical
the zambezi river
taps offers a cool breeze
a narrative in verse and air
the breeze will pick you up
in rhythmand rhyme
a seductive sensibility
woven into the fabric
deconstruction construction
skillful resplendent ethereal
ripples of water lap your ankles
skim the water with your fingers
a natural flowwith the river
the current gets stronger
power of the cascade
let it wash over you
stand and refresh
in all its might and splendor
Poem by Paul Wade, May 2012
