MY LOVE STORY

             MY LOVE STORY

All thanks to God and the slums

for the love I found there

deep down in laikipia county

lies the Manguo slums

and like the hippos of manguo

so is the love of the residents

He's a light skin

best height and weight for a guy

but something is different about him

my heart tells me so

his heart is beautiful

and his smile so colourful

the warmth of his love i feel

and soon our bond we shall seal

The true definition of a beau

and to him my love I owe

playing hard to get was difficult

for my love too like his was so evident

from the day i visited the bank

where he is a guard

to our first dinner at his place

allowing love to flow at its pace

Two weeks later

he goes down on one knee

making the long awaited plea

right infront of his colleagues

who upto now think we are in haste

but no, we are in love

Meeting his parents today

gave me the feeling of yaay

getting the approval from family

and next we meet my family

from there follows the vows

and definately friends' wows

We shall start from here

at the hippos slums

won't mind lying on the floor

on his old thin matress

so long as our love flourishes

we shall whisper sweet words

not only because of love

but also the neighbour will be listening

Slowly we shall rise together

and happily we shall live forever

for him il bear half a dozen children

he will be the king

and i the queen

and an empire we shall build

The slums too got their beauty bit

and happines they have given me

Yaay to Manguo slums!
