Zambezi River Basin

still gentle mythical the zambezi river taps offers a cool breeze a narrative in verse and air the breeze will pick you up in rhythmand rhyme

a seductive sensibility woven into the fabric

deconstruction construction skillful resplendent ethereal ripples of water lap your ankles skim the water with your fingers a natural flowwith the river the current gets stronger power of the cascade let it wash over you stand and refresh in all its might and splendor

Poem by Paul Wade, May 2012 Depiction of Nyaminyami, the Zambezi river spirit, by Tapfuma Gutsa from his exhibition Mulonga , DeepWaters and Starry Skies
