Not at All---By Ndaba Sibanda--Saudi Arabia

Not at All

No hustle
Neither bustle
Just muted rooms
Soundless walls whispering
Little innocence looms

  2. Ndaba, I loved it! It reminded me to "slow down and live". I am working on becoming as a little child, innocent and so intent on doing one thing at a time with all their heart and loving it. We adults with all our hurry scurry cannot seem to enjoy what we are doing for thinking on the next thing that must be done. I appreciate your talent.
    Love, Charlene
