By Praise Mutoko
From an isolated bench,
I watch children playing and laughing together in the playground.
Pure innocence and love define them.
As the mother of one of them gives one a maize cob,
Together they happily share it.
None of the children is selfish,
But rather they are all willing to give.
If only we could realize that we are children.
If only we could realize that we are under the care of the same parent.
If only we could realize that the more we give away,
The happier and fulfilled we become;
We would not fight for food and money.
We would not fight because we realize that God is the giver of all.
We would not bruise and hurt each other because of our different genders and race.
Rather we would realize that we are just the same.
We would realize that our borders do not define us,
Because we are all human,
Because we are all children under one parent’s care,
His name is God Almighty, The Creator.
