 When the colossal dinosaur traversed through the marshy soil; there occurred a

deafening roar; the entire family of jungle beasts saluted him, 
However he left behind a trail of triangular footprints; bohemian and gigantic; that made onlookers uneasy; by merely glimpsing the same.
 
When the hunch backed camel ambled languidly through the desert; I paid him
flowing tributes of adulation; for unceasingly bearing the tyranny of scorching heat, 
However he left behind a semicircular array of footprints; which appeared 
pretty insipid and nonchalant.
 
When the stray dog ran across the wet road; he was a sight to stare; with his
furry coat now camouflaged in muddy water, 
However he left behind a battalion of messy footprints; which caused disdainful blemishes on the surface.
 
When the handsome horse galloped across the racetrack; he looked majestic and
grandiloquent; panting with spurts of exuberant energy, 
However he left behind an incongruous design of footprints which were crudely
square in shape; punctuating cavities in the hard ground.
 
When the olive green and serrated skinned crocodile slithered through the
river banks; he looked domineering and awe inspiring, 
However he left behind an armory of deadly footprints; which caused sumptuous
food in the belly of innocuous trespassers to violently churn.
 
When the protuberant bellied ducks paraded through clayey farm mud; they
appeared a sight to feast on; with their yellow beaks dazzling brilliantly in
the Sun, 
However they left behind a jugglery of diamond shaped footprints; which
perpetuated incorrigible stains in the spotless kitchen.
 
When the black striped panther aimlessly loitered through the tropical grass; he looked like a royal prince; embodied with the whitest of silken whisker, 
However he left behind a fleet of monstrously incoherent footprints; which 
scrupulously lead the hunter to his den.
When the nefarious robber stealthily crept across the soil; he left me dumbfounded; clad in the blackest of attire; with a snake hood camouflaging his face, 
However he left behind a volley of deplorable footprints; which helped the police to trace and apprehend him.
 
And when she walked on the cold floor with bare feet; it shivered as if 
caressed by a celestial fairy; having just descended from the realms of heaven, 
Also the footprints that she left behind were perfectly synchronized; were the
most mesmerizing that I had ever sighted on the trajectory of this earth.

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!
