| Title | Mawu of the Waters
|
Line one | I am Mawu of the Waters.
| Line two | With mountains as my footstool
| Line three | and stars in my curls
| Line four | I reach down to reap the water with my fingers
| Line five | and look! I cup lakes in my palms.
| Line six | I fling oceans around me like a shawl
| Line seven | and I am transformed
| Line eight | into a waterfall,
| Line nine | Springs flow through me
| Line ten | and spill rivers at my feet
| Line eleven | as fresh stream surge
| Line twelve | to make seas.
| Poet | By Abena Busia
| Note | (Mawu means god in the Akan language) |
