Black Calla Lilies On My Grave

About Me
- Salem Lorot
- Nairobi, Kenya
- I used to hear echoes from the hills but I realized that the winds of time blew them away. I used to scribble them on the caves and tree-barks until the rocks weathered and tree-barks got defaced. And now, I am on a mission to preserve these echoes, these tales, these whispers I hear from the hills.

Salem, this is magnificent, one of your best. You must submit this to somewhere where a lot of people can read it - maybe a Nairobi newspaper? It is so wonderful, so full of heart. And lovely to hear it read by you too. Who is that adorable puppy you are holding? Is he yours? SO sweet! I loved hearing this poem this morning. It is a blessing.
Thanks Koko. I will try submitting it to the newspapers here. The bottomline is that I also love it. That is Sword, the late Sword. But he still lives on. He lives amongst us.
