Africa My Motherland Poem by Favour Chinemerem Ugwumba

Africa My Motherland

Rating: 4.5


Africa!
my motherland
in you I have identified my name
my name buried so long under
the pains of separation and segregation
my eyes are seeing the excellency of the present
and my ears hearing No More Racism

oh! Africa
revealed beyond the rains of the past
with days of dreams and abandoned ideas
in your presence I have discovered
the memory of our being.
serving my motherland is my hobby

God bless Africa! !
My motherland! ! !
