Africa Mother's Land Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

In the heart of Africa, lies a land so grand,
A place of beauty, where nature's hand,
Has painted the landscape, with colors so bright,
A land that gives strength, a mother's might.

The sun shines down, with its golden rays,
Blessing the land, in so many ways,
The sky above, forever blue,
Holding the dreams, of a mother true.

The mountains stand tall, like a mother's pride,
Protecting her children, with every stride,
The rivers flow, like a mother's tears,
Nourishing the land, for thousands of years.

The trees dance in the wind, to a mother's song,
A symphony of life, that never goes wrong,
The savannahs stretch, as far as the eye can see,
A mother's love, for her children to be free.

From the jungle to the desert, her love knows no bounds,
She nurtures all life, with gentle sounds,
Her people, her children, a rainbow of faces
Living in harmony, in her warm embraces.

Oh mother's land, your beauty astounds,
In every corner, your love abounds.
Through hardships and struggles, you stand tall,
A mother's love, will never fall.

Your soil is rich, with stories untold,
Of warriors and queens, brave and bold,
Your culture, your heritage, so diverse and true,
A mother's land, forever loving you.

And though I may roam,
Far from your shores
My heart will always be yours
For in your arms, I will always find
The love of a mother, one of a kind.

So here's to you, mother's land
The beating heart, of Africa's brand
Forever in my soul, you will stay
My mother's land, in every way.
