Diamond In The Swamp: Pt. 2

by DavidBokolo


From the darkened waters where for 
ages they have roamed and toiled
the fishermen, bobbing in their canoes
with the rippling silent ocean waves, looked at
the rays from the massive concrete
superstructure dangling overhead
it was like the heavens have come to men

Stretching out from the dark surrounding swamps
and loping into the sky and arcing into the far horizon
and being swallowed up by nightly gloom
the diamond bridge over the Bonny river displays
the splendor of an architectural masterpiece


Let others and the author know if you liked it
