Funny thoughts
I have made myself comfortable,
Farmiliarized myself with the heartbeat,
The functions of all senses, but mostly,
I have come to enjoy the scenery
Through the windows of this body, the eyes.
I have seen beautiful things,
I have met other bodies,
With time, I learnt to relate with these bodies
We share much more,
Beyond just neighbourly gestures.
I have come to need these bodies,
To place trust and reliance on them.
I expect great things from them,
Hoping they do the same about me.
We call each other by name.
A way in which bodies are identified.
Each body is unique in make, shape and size.
Our names represent this uniqueness.
They call my body, Chuma!
A name that means prosperity,
Beyond just a name, a responsibilty,
To live up to the name of the body.
The term of residence in the body is not specified.
When I vacate it, I will leave it with pride,
Having lived up to the responsibility of being a prosperous somebody.
Having given the body respect, care, love and treated it with gratitude and honour.
I am grateful to have lived in this body called Chuma, for I have become Prosperous!

CHUMA
I am a resident in this body!I have made myself comfortable,
Farmiliarized myself with the heartbeat,
The functions of all senses, but mostly,
I have come to enjoy the scenery
Through the windows of this body, the eyes.
I have seen beautiful things,
I have met other bodies,
With time, I learnt to relate with these bodies
We share much more,
Beyond just neighbourly gestures.
I have come to need these bodies,
To place trust and reliance on them.
I expect great things from them,
Hoping they do the same about me.
We call each other by name.
A way in which bodies are identified.
Each body is unique in make, shape and size.
Our names represent this uniqueness.
They call my body, Chuma!
A name that means prosperity,
Beyond just a name, a responsibilty,
To live up to the name of the body.
The term of residence in the body is not specified.
When I vacate it, I will leave it with pride,
Having lived up to the responsibility of being a prosperous somebody.
Having given the body respect, care, love and treated it with gratitude and honour.
I am grateful to have lived in this body called Chuma, for I have become Prosperous!
