As I pondered my life on a walk through the jungle
I found sweet rest in my wonderful bungle
OH! The sweet joy of wisdom learned in turmoil
As the majestic, great green mamba unfurled
Like a flag of the proud yet humble burly man.
We went to the place where fish swim in herds.
As I struggled to stay above the big waves of the sea
I ran to the shelter so wet from the rain wouldn't be.
We posed on a log as our picture was taken
We're a pretty handsome family, you're not mistaken.
Tomorrow I will travel to my 2 room house
Before I leave the car, I'll wear a long sleeved blouse.
The flies may try to bite me,
But I will say, "Flies I can take thee."
I will settle in my house under the mosquito net at night
As I ponder the meaning of this great African life.

Jamie's in Cameroon
on the edge of the Green Abyss
where gorillas sing in tune
and snakes join in and hiss
And here we are in Memphis
Singing as we pray
that her jungle fun be full of bliss
in a short, come home soon way.
Love, Vicki
