OUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED

Ladies and gentlemen!
Incline your ears to these words
When one is born,
Joy and merriment are inevitable
But mark you, our days are numbered
Now the babe is in the nursing stage
Happy to be nourished, protected and well-catered for
Within the child, health is not far fetched
In his youthful stage
Little or no problem is encountered
Here the brain can digest
Then assimilate without any defects
To him the world is like a bed of roses
Who can withstand the strength at his disposal?
The smooth skin,
His Bright face,
Soft hair,
Not forgetting the physical appearance
In fact, the beauty is in the eyes of the beholders
But alas! It is borrowed
Then comes the memorable period of time
Life enjoyments, so it is called
Filled with wicked emotions
Striving to reach where his legs can not take him
Here the creator is ignored
His life is entangled in the net of dangers
So his days are actually numbered

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
