A Flower by Mvula ya Nangolo
1
Ever walked that footpath
to my village
between that communal well
and your uncle's homestead?
5
If next you come
not by flying machine
but walking in single file
with your chum or scum
from the city ...
10 just don't walk by
but stop
Put a flower on my grave
for I died like a brave
for your salary so high
15 which you receive with no sigh
I'd freed you
and lest you forget the brave
there on that grave
just a flower-child
20 onto my eternal bed
where I rest but not yet dead
Just a flower lad.
