uphaphe lwempilo   
 emgodini wehhashi   
 ilanga seliphumile   
 ukuze kuzalwe isikhumba esigcwele   
 Izinsuku ezimnandi.      
  
 Yizwa uthule   
 uma kumile ummeli   
 eduze kwendlu yakhe   
 ukubala amantongomane esibonelelo   
 ngokuziphika.      
  
 thatha futhi ubeke   
 ngosuku lwenkazimulo esiza   
 aphume elawini lakhe   
 njengosuku ebusika   
 dabula emahlozini ngezindebe ezikhihlizayo.      
  
 Phuma okokugcina   
 wenjabulo nolaka    
 i-office mare   
 kaCharybde kuScylla   
 ukuba mpofu ngokwakho.      
  
 Sthandwa sami samanzi aphilayo   
 singakukali ukuhleka kwethu   
 mayelana nedlelo eliwusawoti ebuntwaneni bethu   
 izimvu zangesonto   
 kukhona ama-splashes we-watercolor.
