Benard Githogori (1975- ) Audacious Smile Luhya Woman
Kenya, Africa
Egyptian worlds
melted into
Kenyan worlds
(pre-empted by a splash of Uganda)
in my long ago yesterdays
for a time
we tinkered with British ways
and linked with their
Christian soul
and still link
but it is Kenya who became
my foster mother
our foster mother
and for that blessing
I give you
an audacious smile
