A HARMATTAN LETTER

A HARMATTAN LETTER

A Poem by Sylvia Chika




As the dust settles on your windscreen

I appear

I’m here!

I’ll write you a harmattan letter

Yeah, that’s me!

If I wish to be naughty,

I’ll draw you a caricature

I’ll write you a love message

Or maybe I’ll instruct you,

“Wash me!”

“Dust me!”

“Clean me!”

Or

“Please, love me!”

Hehehe

I’ll write you a harmattan letter

And then, I’ll run away!

Far enough to watch you scream

To see you shout

And curse your heart out

How amusing that would be!

Mischief at its peak!

Oh! How I love the harmattan!

Dusty and dry!

Brown everywhere

Dust on cars

Dust on my car

Dust on your car!

So as you read this poem

Please check your windscreen

You’ve got mail, honey!

I sent you a letter

A sweet harmattan letter

Read it with a tender heart

Hehehe

Lots of love from me

Your sweet sweet Harmattan Joker

XOXO
