Beautiful poem from a cleaver poet. another shall be born, he shall not be a chief but a king who will reign forever and lead the nation to everlasting freedom. God bless you for sharing.
Beautiful depiction of the looming rebirth of a nation which has been enduring oppression for long, well articulated and insightfully penned in good poetic diction with conviction. Lovely piece of poetry nicely brought forth in good rhyme scheme. Thanks for sharing Collins. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
