The Elgon teak
Is a tick of beauty
In the fitting of a furniture peak
A million years of hardened growth
It gives off a gloss so smooth
The beautiful ones from the Elgon
Are one and at once the Teak
Sharp in wit and strong
Have outgrown the cut
That once reduced them
To a poplar bluff
No fit
For a giant fix
The beautiful daughters of
Mount Masaba
The great peak
East of Uganda
The Pearl of the British colony
This peak
Jutting out West of
Kenya
Are athletes
Academics
Professionals
Nuturers
Building
The Elgon
For the future
Free of FGM
Elgon Peaks
