Colourful world – A Poem by Nelson Kamkuimo, Cameroon

I dreamt about some good deals of God
who made the brightest book of children literature
the world full of people and colours

He made black fall from the sky
and covered the earth surface with night
he made red spring up from the blood at the cross
to empower the fire burning in hell

He made the sun yellow like the little eye of the egg
to colour the dream of those who are afflicted
and lighten the burden of the slaves

Green leaves were made to florish in the rainy season
and give life to plants, and give birth to life
and pink – Oh my God!
pink was made to deceive men that true love exists
