I am born in Africa with the odd triangle, <br />But that is not the end of my story with you; <br />And i have the hope of meeting up with stars one day. <br />Across the ages of history are the ages of mankind, <br />And across the stages of my age are my dreams; <br />For i have to take the steps of meeting you one day. <br /> <br />He brews with his people and, <br />Every son was thrown into the river! <br />But the daughters were saved for love. <br /> <br />I have made up my mind towards you and, <br />My age will lead me on to the mountain of love; <br />For i was born in Africa with the odd triangle but, <br />The dreams of my mind will lead me on. <br /> <br />Kish, fish, dish; <br />1611 to the King James Version of the Bible; <br />But the Roman Pope ssent Augustine to convert England in 596. <br /> <br />I am born in Africa with hope, <br />And of the struggles that have made me very strong! <br />But like a celibate mate in a compact car, <br />I will rise up high above all things to meet the stars. <br /> <br />Of much medieval canon laws and, <br />What i can do in this life; <br />But in the era of 325, <br />The Council of Nicaea condemned Arianism. <br /> <br />How can a war be 'holy' when, people are being killed? <br />Maybe it is like a political inoculation to the immune system; <br />But, i will make it to the stars one day.<br /><br />Edward Kofi Louis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/born-in-africa/
