Love Poem: My Africa

My Africa

Africa!Africa 
My Africa
A proud land of our forefathers 
Africa my jewel 
Your recipes of courage has been pass from generation to generation 
A continent carved out of glory 
A land blessed with fertile soil on which the world grow 
A land known for their hospitality
A land known for our skillful potter 
We survived by unity and love for one another 
A land blessed with many talents 
The land that's solid like the baobab tree that always flourish
We map our future from your stories 
The land where my heart resides and will always be 
A land blessed with different language like swahili, amharic, oromo,zulu,hausa,shona 
The africa that is at the heart of different people, language who we all call this land our home 
A land blessed with great heroes and leaders like Ellen Johnson sirleaf, jomo kenyatta, Nelson Mandela, Thomas sankara, kofi Annan 
We're black in the outside but white in the inside 
For Africa to them is just a continent but to me is my identity and my home 
From the depth of my heart comes the blossom of greatness 
To them we're slaves but that's their view 
My blackness is my strength 
My Africa will rise from the shackles of adversity 
My Africa will rise from the ashes of distorted history 
I speak for myself, you and the Africa 
We're blessed with great poets like Kwame Dawes, jack cope 
Have you heard of Alhanislam,shefeerh, soulunraveled, teen Tag together we all are Africans 
The world is like a picture and we the Africans are the frame that holds it
Dear Africa your love unite us 
This is my home
