Having burnt countless night candles
Which nurtured sleepless nights
Of flipping through pages of books
My knowledge appears to be unwanted
The certificate the proof of my investment
Turns to be a symbol of mockery
In my proverbial beggars bowl
And a token being offered for its dignity
Perphaps I am not better than a truckpusher
All that eyes have seen
Words of mouth can not narrate
This is a hidden reality
In nations filled with abundant wealths
This is my story

"All that eyes have seen Words of mouth can not narrate..."
Therefore to tell you that my mouth uttered "Wow." When I came upon this image, translates nothing of what it meant to me. I am struck.
Thank you for CONSTRUCTING what you think and feel.
When I got to this Image everybody at cafe love me and I said am not the author. Lovely and Lovely to have in my parlour
Nice work. The use of colour and the imagery itself is beautiful. Thanks
Nice work
