Two boys Black and white Played in a garden Under the tree They sat and slept The breeze fanned them As the afternoon Slipped from the field They collected their things To go back home At twilight The clouds made A white canopy And the rain showered Down their bodies They sloshed water In the pools Walked and ran And bade adieu With love in their bosoms And promises in eyes To be united again In the lap of nature And away from Kaleidoscope of their elders
