I shift the papers
I shuffle the bundles
Online and offline
Looking for you
Through cyber nooks and crannies
Where you hide your many faces
In different moods
Scented smiles
Winsome eyes
Jubilant cheeks
Ivory strong teeth
Whiter than egret's wings
Coying dimples
Two curve amber rainbows
Black river of hair
Flowing forever
From Cairo to Congo
Half of the continent enriched
Send more of you
In papers and screens
The thousands here
Are appetizers alone!
The hunger could only be assuaged
Holding you face to face
Breath to breath
Kiss to kiss
And life to life
