Think Africa Poem by Alade Abayomi Idris
Think Africa
Must it be you!
Your name they mentioned
When poverty kills.
Ain't you tired of bad names!
Your name they mentioned
When starvations and diseases kill.
Hmmm! You again!
Your name they mentioned
When corruptions and lawlessness sprouts.
Why? Why you?
Your name they mentioned
When they called the backward man.
Why can't you sit and think
Plan and focus
So you may be called Prince like your brothers.
Think Africa! Think Africans
Our blackness shouldn't be what they called it
We too can rule the world.
Brilliant piece your roots and pride overwhelmed me. No matter what colour you are people should really enjoy this baptism of country pride. Best Regards Alade Craig
Bravo! An outburst of the heart and mind filled with pride and dignity! Ignorance is the worst enemy of humanity! The ills affecting Africa today is affecting the rest of the World! This well crafted write sends a powerful message to our African brothers as well as to the rest of us all over the globe! 10+++Thank you for sharing and keep it up! God Bless You! Romeo-New York City
be the men and women you're called to be... it's all any of us can hope for!

What a great poser for motherland Africa! Let us call on our leaders; the mother has done her own naturally assigned role, let the children labor to their own greatness! A good thoughtful poem! ! !
