Africa is the land where I live
And to just stay here, I would everything give
Although there is famine, crime
The continent is truly sublime
You here the lion roar,
the run of the wild boar,
The beating of the African Drums
And when the matriarch elephant comes
The land of Africa is in your soul,
Burning Like a fiery coal
They work together in one nation,
In friendship and salvation
The Buffalo stampede
together will lead,
The Antelope heards
and the many species of African Birds
Through the bush,
they will push
The African Heart, The African Sun, The African Continent all in one.


The author's comments:
I was in inspired by all the wildlife and rhythm in Africa
and wanted to capture it on paper. I wrote this when I was thirteen.
