My Home Land Poem by Emmanuel Arunee Mwanza

My home land,
Is in the southern hemisphere
It is in the southern part of Africa
It is easternish-south
Not far from the Indian Ocean
And that's where my land is
My land is not in the very central either
But it is there…right there on the map
If you have your paper…follow that compass direction…down south
Stop…! there!
Right there! ...it is…
In the southern part of Africa
It is easternish-south
Not far from the Indian Ocean
And that's where my land is
Locked among three countries
Sided on its back by a lake
It is called Lake Malawi
Anyway, we not sure which is our back
But we can rightly say where the lake
Is
…could be the back
My land is …
Beautiful
Placed among the beautiful neighbouring countries too...
Alright
…let's get it right again…
My land is easternish-south
Not far from the Indian Ocean
Not far central
It is in the southern part of Africa
I have my people there
They are a loving people I have known
A people that have made me believe
A people whose midst I feel safe to live
Right
Should we have the insight of the future in my home land?
Well, it will change
But I am made to believe that something will remain the same
The spirit of my people
The spirit of peace
The nature of peace that is still nurtured among people in my home land
You want relax?
Visit…the southern hemisphere
Malawi in particular
It is warm
With nice weather and wild life
It is warm
And my people are warm hearted too
They are amazing
My home land is called the WARM HEART OF AFRICA
Visit and let's see if you would not make my home land your home too
