Poem: The queen of the Kalahari (Okavango Delta)
It has been a while
Since I laid my eyes on you
Your splendour is beyond imagination
Your beautiful sunset eyes surpasses all beauty
You have punctured my heart and filled it with Love
You bring life wherever you go
You have touched my soul with your love
Your hand is always ready to give
You have brought life to the multitudes of wildlife
Always carrying extras to give to drifters from afar
You have quenched the thirstiness of the mystic Kalahari Desert
Pumping all your love into his heart
Instead of sand storms, he is now fully dressed with your kisses
You even brought the sounds of tranquillity with you
All kinds of birds sing for you
Even the hippopotamus have joined in
With their bellowing tunes
You even brought life to the night sky
Hyenas and jackals are in concert
Laughing and dancing for you all night long
Your charm is beyond this world
You put a spell on the King of the jungle
As he was heard roaring all night long
Begging you to come to bed
You are the queen of the Kalahari
Your kingdom is paradise on earth
We welcome you with joy Her Majesty
We shall feast in your tranquillity
And enjoy the abundance of your Love
