Heart of Africa calls to me.
There is much work for all to see
by the return of blessed rains.
From green forests to crystal falls,
happiness is there without walls
or sad dryness upon the plains.
Break your chains and return to us.
Remember nature and confess.
All is not lost to the unknown.
Friendly faces with cheerful smiles
warm lovingly for many miles.
As colored petals, you have shown.
Pebbles are thrown into water,
though your daughter and sons have grown.
Author’s note: First attempt at Jeffreys Sonnet poem.
On 09-06-2006, I totally cried after I first read his Example # 1 poem.
