The Kenyan Coin

I took this photo today at sunset,
At worm’s eye view,
A coin that many Kenyans toil to get,
And work hard to multiply.

Just like the worm, we look up for hope,
And most are the times, the coin goes as fast as it came.
Under the scorching sun, we still want more,
But don’t let the coin make you forget, where you came from.

Today as the sun goes down, turn on a new leaf,
We may not see a lot from where we are,
But we are wealthy from within.
Pause the moment, and enjoy what you already have.
