My Continent's Promise

What does my continent have in store for me?

If I chose to go back to the motherland today,
what is the promise that my continent has to offer me?
Will I be able to contend myself that there will be a way,
or I will have to make my own way?

Will there be a fair process to make my way,
or I'd have to do holla hoops?

What is that promise?
I want to go back to you motherland!
Show me the promise, so I can plan my way back.
I long to breathe your air, bask in your sun,
till your soils, sow in your grounds and just enjoy it.

My dreams are deeply rooted in your promise.
I can no longer sleep peacefully because they must
be accomplished. My dreams are now a burden I
must unload off my shoulders. Many are waiting to benefit.
Oh motherland, make a way for my return a pleasant one.

You would be happy when the dreams come to live!
Oh I know you would be proud.
Dear Motherland, pave the way and make it happen.....soon!

My Pain - Our Pain for Daddy

My Ailing Daddy

Oh Dear Daddy, I go to bed every night with your pain buried deep within me. How can I not feel your pain? I worry everyday. I pray for you day in an out, that you will get better. Oh Daddy! I've cried many a nights....cried till I became strong again.

I miss not hearing your voice. The sound of your laughter or your smile! I just miss hearing that sound. But I’ll be by your side soon. Life placed a gazillion of obstacles in our path. But little by little, we are making our way through if Dad. Please hang in there Daddy! I promise you, it will be better. We will make certain of that.

I whisper that promise…… and I know you heard me!

Love you Dad! We all love you so much!
