You may think they know nothing
But they know a lot
As we realized here on our field work
We had to ask them for some explanation
On some of the uses of the rivers
They even had to write down on our hands
The many values of the water resources
So that we may not forget
As we went ahead with our field work
But as I left them behind
Something kept on nagging my mind
If they know so well
Who taught them
Then I realized
They are natural scientists
Then I asked myself
What did we do to deserve them
And I knew then
That we did nothing to deserve them
Only that they loved us so much
To forsake us
They are our mothers
The mother figures of the world

Writer Profile
Erick Ochieng Otieno
I was a student from Egerton University. I pursued a course leading to a BSc in Applied Aquatic Sciences. I believe that through writing, one can relieve a lot from the heart. Inspiration came from hearing and reading. Whoever said that you have to be an old one to communicate issues of policies, did not consider that even a newborn communicates through its own way, "crying". I would like to communicate to the world all my thoughts; However minor they are, I believe they will go a great length to straighten or strengthen a policy or two somewhere and I shall have contributed to the well being of the world. How noble that is, it is for my worthy readers to let me know. So what do you think? Tell me anytime. Bye and have a nice reading.
