The Day Before Yesterday Poem by Tony Adah

The Day Before Yesterday



We defied
Rain and sun
Waiting for the leader
He had a mind
And his mind had eyes
So we waited waving
Pieces of our national flag
Rehearsing our national anthem
We matched past very optimistic faces
The shortest boy
Had the biggest heart
He led the match past
Spinning the baton.
That was then
When patriotism still
Had a place in our hearts.
