The African Child Poem by Chukwuma Adione
The African Child
A child in Africa
could be a man in America
though a victim of corruption's odour
yet they are vessels unto honour
The african child is a name of a title
a power and faith perhaps little
lets keep our gaze on who they are
time would make them greater than stars.
Beautiful blend of plight of the African Child and the Child's strength of character, which is brought to bear on deplorable situation of things - duty and resolve holding firm. A lovely poem nicely penned in good diction with conviction. Thanks for sharing Chukwuma.
Thanks Chinedu, it means alot to me. I hope you would love my other poems.
