Down the dangerously steep mountains She powerfully gurgles down Clear and powerful And ultimately into the sprawling Mwea plains And though out of the steep Still deliver her intimate brand Of current flow power.
Sneaking silently around the curves Bending towards her destiny She now only whispers A low murmur of liquid advice “Please don’t Defy, misuse or pollute me For I love you That’s why I came”
And I love to admire The immense beauty of her flow Old yet powerful Her steps gaily like a fairy And her ***** a mass of turbulence Her valley heavy with vegetation A forest out of a scary fairy tale.
But I love to watch her Slim body Snaking to the direction of the ***** The dance of white foams in the current As she churns her way to the coast Releasing a cold radiation A caressing chill The beauty of her source The snow-capped lofty mountains I can only give my love to you To you my darling That can only be River Nyamindi.
*Water bodies are the source of life for all, love them and take care of them.
