Africa

[DeviousKid45]

As my eyes wander dreamingly astray -nice intro here
from one star to the next in rapid pace
Getting lost and ending up far, far away
on the night sky of an unknown place -nice ending to this stanza

I see under a moon so round and bold
shadows working though the sun has set
Still their hands are empty and cold;
their foreheads dusty, bathing in sweat-I like this whole stanza due to the imagery.

I think about those who don’t own a pen -we get a reveal that the above stanzas are thoughts of someone. really nice
– what do they do when they want to write?
those who lie sleepless in their humble den
kept awake by thoughts but without a light

And I wonder how they all ended up here;
all the papers, pencils, erasers, and books
Some of them must have come from there
carved out of an old Adansonia's[/i] crooks -nice ending to this poem

Very very good. Keep it up!
