Voice of Guyana International

I miss you
Like I miss the beaming afternoon sun
Glowing on the mighty Essequibo
Like I miss the sound
Of black water gently slapping on mangrove roots
Like I miss twilight falling
On rusty brown beaches

These things put my soul at ease

I miss you like I miss coconut water
Dripping down my chin
And cane juice
Dripping down my arm
Sweet cane juice

Oh how I miss you

You are like cane juice to me
If only I could
Hear black water slapping
As the Essequibo glows
With you in my arms
I won’t need cane juice to taste sweetness
Sweetness in my soul
Oh how I miss you
