A Point To Prove Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

A Point To Prove



Every child knows his or her mother more than his or her father,
That is why i am crying in the wilderness of Africa! !
For, i have a point to prove.
I have a mind to tell and,
I have a poem to write;
In the wilderness of Africa to prove a Point.
What about the plethora of Authors who do write? !
What about they who write about Africa?
Complex as it may be, i am an African with a vision.
Life!
The obnoxious acts of slavery brought about many things;
And of the spread of the Africans worldwide;
However, yesterday gone by was the Slavery Days!
And, today is for you and me to tell the truth.
Every child knows his or her mother more than his or her father,
That is why i have a point to prove;
However, this world is our home! !
But, why should some live and others starve?
Bombs! ! !
With huge sums of money to invest on;
While many in this world have no food to eat,
But, tomorrow comes and, what have you to say?
