Lungelo Mpatho - The passing years...

The passing years bring about experience
With experience comes a little understanding
Learning to speak less when we mean less
And to mean more in minimum words
Touchable words to name the simple things
A hard stone, a true love, a wise man….
A true stone, a hard man, or to love wisely-
