Indeed Galleh. Your ambidexterity is inspirational. A guy like you is who my uncle Sidia would call a Polyvalent. You are a beautiful man. Mams, don't get any funny ideas. Thanx again Galleh.

Haruna.

Thanks Haruna. No the l;ast line is not an error. I deliberately  wrote "see the forest for the trees" rather than "miss the forest for the trees" because in the context of the poem's imagined drama, that's what happens. Hope this helps.

Beautiful again Galleh. I wonder if the last line is in error. If it is not, I'd apppreciate it if you share the sequence of thought. Thanx again for you.
 
Haruna.

I will tell you why I cry
By Baba Galleh Jallow
I will tell you why I cry
Even kneeling before the sacred light
Even chanting the sacred verse
Even filled with the sacred love
My heart rejoicing in blissful rapture
At the glory of my Lord
I will tell you why I cry
Why my eyes turn to fountains
Why my cheeks become waterfalls
Even as I praise the Lord
For blessing me with so much joy
For keeping me so safe and sound
For leading me unto His light
For making me one who believes
I will tell you why I cry
Why pain daily dances on my face
Why my smiles refuse to shine
Why my heart is full of sand 
Even when I feel so blessed
Even when my spirit laughs
At the follies of this world
I will tell you why I cry
Because the one I thought I knew
Is not the one I think I know
Because the friend I thought I had
Is not the friend I think I have
Because the one I thought different
Seems not so different after all
Seems the same as all the others
Who see the forest for the trees!
