I Married In the City

It was a reality
To him he had seen ahead
He had lived it 
So he was disturbed in the head
That one day i will the village
Headed to the city
And so,
Before I came to the city
He said the place was a vacuum cavity
It sucks you in and has no gravity
Floats you beautifully
He pointed the sky
I saw the beautiful scenery
Of the winter clouds
Floating and streamling
Scattered on a blue sky background
Sun sending rays
To the ground between the clouds
it was breathtaking
That was the city boy
That's how it is there. 
So before I boarded the bus
He said, Grandson 
Don't marry a city girl. 

I met a village girl in the City
Do your remember the valleys
Those touched the sky 
With trees far in Elgon
Those that connected earth to heaven? 
That's her beauty
Natural and connected to her heart
The sky is on our feet now
We are Moving with the stars
Sipping honey on the moon.
