De poem

de poem did not have a heart
but did have a soul /it read so sweet suga--cane
..mama bake-bread sweet
..took me on a flight to st.lucy up thru the woods
..there's where i found its.
mother bathing another poem new and she took flight as i surprised her
..the poem left on de ground of bath beach st.john
...crying out to be heard
..and john king/gabby/rpb..heard the cry
...and wrap it round me..calypso..
...yes me calypso was born of a bajan dream .
nestle between a spouge song and the sea
...hear de cry in every land
..kamau braithwaithe.s land me land in me heart too...
...de poem remains strong....
