A NEW DAY little birds sing in the trees the the mingle of air and dew raise a new gentle breeze then I learn it is 6:00 am a new day has come children scream out of excitement the little ones clinging unto their mother’s robs while the elders match to their plantations I can feel their feet stamping the ground their anxiety for a day no little can tell they silently wait for what the new day shall bring the girls combine wood to give a fine flame while little boys and girls shout out in delight they climb dem mango trees because there no reason to worry it is a new day they skip their roaps as the old ones go to hunt oh what a beauty they face when mama boils rabbit soup in their fine nsuwa and watch papa roll a big white solid ball of bugali As they listen to the rumbles in their tummies children lay their bodies down to rest its been a busy day full of nothing but excitement and smiles accompany them to their neverland as they wait for another exciting day a new day to come in a pool of thoughts their parents lie thoughts of tomorrow strangle them to death terrified at what a new day will bring and when it comes they face it all over because its a new day and a new day will always come Ampurire is a law student at the University of Rwanda
