Africa

It is a word so beautiful,

And yet bittersweet

To those who have lived

Or have visited her shores.


Hear the wind whisper over the land,

Blowing the red grains of sand

That are released-

As Africa is felt.

Soil as red as blood;

As the sun boils

In a sky so clear,

Over a land so dark.
