Just Another Day at My Village Town | Akwana wa Odera

Kick start
I push myself to start
Blink twice
Draw the curtains aside
Like golden spears
Penetrating my windows
I let the sunlight
Hit my eyes
Just to acknowledge the fact
That it’s already dawn
I need to wake up
And feel the earth
Just to appreciate
That I’m feeling alive.
The chirping of the birds
A natural melody
That never get hyped
The smell of fresh dung
The dew on the grass
Shining, in sparkling light
As the sun rays hit the ground
The morning cold
Making me shiver a bit
As i try to see through
The fading fog
The the white rising smoke
Of burning firewood
From neighbour’s kitchens
The laughing and energetic
Sounds of little children
As mothers prepare
Something to feed them
The sizzling sounds
Of steaming kettles
The scrubbing and rubbing
Of yesterday’s utensils
The smell of cooking breakfast
The day has started
The whole village’s a woken
I yawn and smile
Its just another day
In my village town.
