Lovers of Afrika
If I breath a silent song
with a hand planted into my heart
and my eyes leak an abundant memory
of water and blood
that travels a thousand miles in deserts and plantations,
cosmopolitans and neo-others
refurbishing, renewing, reclaiming and recapturing
the future
as it glimmers like sun and moon
i remain dear to you
becouse you know me,
My weak ness and strength
my magic and mistry
for my hand that contineus to cultivate this earth
with patience,humility and love
is simply rooted in your heart
and therefore
I kneel
before the mountains and sea's
marveled, enchanted
my heart pounds like a Dum Dum Drum
yet the silence is still pristine
like the love you give to me
My Afrika
with a hand planted into my heart
and my eyes leak an abundant memory

as it glimmers like sun and moon
i remain dear to you
becouse you know me,
My weak ness and strength
my magic and mistry
for my hand that contineus to cultivate this earth
with patience,humility and love
is simply rooted in your heart
and therefore
I kneel
before the mountains and sea's
marveled, enchanted
my heart pounds like a Dum Dum Drum
yet the silence is still pristine

Azali Nuru, Ebukhosini solution and UNISA collaborated on this lovely project. The day was abundant with humble energy of Ubuntu and a shooting essence within the spirit, which propelled us to go back to our communities and be better man and women.

Love is all we need!
Love is all we need!
We are born from its womb
Anoint in its orgasm,
We transcend the limbo of u and I,
And exist only in its union,
Produced and reproduced to induce all lusciousness,
Of midnight ebony and the slenderness,
In its cologne that teases lovers of the night,
When they explore the fantasy of romance,
On the evergreens dipped in the sweetness of spring,
Cruising in the ambiance of a million love songs,
We sing along seeking
In the funk of its rhythms,
That last note,
The last ingredient of love
And then we resuscitate
Is LOVE
We are born from its womb
Anoint in its orgasm,

Of midnight ebony and the slenderness,
In its cologne that teases lovers of the night,
When they explore the fantasy of romance,
On the evergreens dipped in the sweetness of spring,
Cruising in the ambiance of a million love songs,
We sing along seeking
In the funk of its rhythms,
That last note,
The last ingredient of love
And then we resuscitate
Is LOVE
