AN AFRICAN " POEM"

I am an African,

Not because of my colour skin,

Not because of my faith in Jesus Chris,

Not because of my education,

Not because of eating African food day and night,

Not because I speak African languages.

I am an African ,

Not because of my position ,

Not because of my African surname,

Not because it is my birthplace,

Not because I married a beautiful African Queen.

I am an African ,

Because I love Africa,

Because I love Africans,

Because l have a vision to develop Africa,

Because I promote the African Union,

Because I contribute to open the eyes of Africans,

Because I teach Africans the history of glory and dignity,

Because I am enlightening Africans mind and thoughts,

I am an African forever and ever.

*Poem by Alfonso II Warally Chris*
