My name is Londiwe Moyo, I am 25 years old. I live in Australia. I really love Guta Ra Mwari. One of the few hobbies I enjoy is giving words a new meaning on paper and telling stories. I am pretty excited to share my work with Guta Ra Mwari members.

Poem: God's Blessings

So Many Blessings

So many blessings, soo many blessings

I lay my head when the moon awakes.

So peaceful even the stars are envious.

One of many gifts of being a Guta Ra Mwari child

I had a sea of dreams in my previous life

When I was just a child enticed by wonder

Now I dream dreams flooded by appreciation

For God has blessed me beyond the ocean’s boundaries.

When the sun reigns and the world surrenders to its daily chaos

My feet are on a mission with God’s guidance.

I’m never lost in wakefulness

Nor in the depths of my existence hidden in my subconscious.

Praise be to God! My praise forever limitless

These tears don’t belong to heartache, I’m joyous!

So many blessings, soo many blessings

Showered like steady rain all over the patient hearts

This story has a beginning but is endless

This is not a song of one but many

When did it begin? Where did it begin?

A piece of that memory lies in 1961
