Sing that song father <br />Common now... <br />Join in with the chorus brother; will you please? <br />Alright sister, you, mother and me, let us all hum <br />Lets put our hands together <br />Let us clap... <br />Lets stretch our vocals chords <br />Let us sing... <br />Let our stories be the drumsticks <br />Let our voices carry on our passion <br />Under this beautiful cloudless night sky <br />The moon and the stars are looking down on us <br />Tonight they'll be our guests <br />They'll be our audience <br />They'll twinkle with every beat <br />Let the gentle breeze, keep strumming on the palms trees <br />Let the trees, join in with their whispers <br />And help reverberate our voices <br />Let us sing the night away <br />The coconuts will quench our thirst <br />The fire will keep us warm <br />I am going to take my shirt off <br />And drum hard on my stomach and thighs <br />We are going to tap those feet <br />To the melodies we know <br />Create perfect harmony as we dance <br />Its Friday night <br />The moon is out and the sky is clear <br />We are gathered by the fire <br />And we'll sing moonlight songs <br />And do moonlight plays <br />Celebrate old times and family traditions <br />We are alive and we are a happy family <br />Lets celebrate unity <br />Lets celebrate love<br /><br />David Beckham<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/moonlight-gathering-an-african-experience/
