Joy

Where is the joy in a mango?
The joy is in Africa
in the eyes of an orphan
who has nothing
or does he have more?

Where is the spirit of giving?
It is In the faces 
of two lovers in Africa
sharing the beauty
of God’s waterfall.

These are signs of hope
for the masses
with unfulfilled expectations
buried in the
graveyard of 
disappointments.

Life is more than just
the fleeting moment of a day.
Taste the orphans mango.
Delight in the gift
two lovers share
in Africa.
