When rivers say goodbye

When rivers say goodbye, is an ironic phrase which exhibits the intimate relationship between the author and her ancestral tribe, land, heritage, spirits, and soil. It is a statement demonstrating the realities of human transition up the ladders of life, when the girlchild/author/poet/writer/chronicler Cynthia Abdallah waves goodbye to her people, her Masai Mara pastures, and the graves of her ancestors, leaving like a migrant bird to other climes beyond the Kenyan/Masai Mara horizons.
