I am an African
Not because I was born there
But because my heart beats with Africa's.
I am an African
Not because my skin is black
But because my mind is engaged by Africa.
I am an African
Not because I live on its soil
But because my soul is at home in Africa.
I have been trying to find the source of the quote I used the other day (25th October) .... "I weep for Africa ... " ... and Google helped, Amazon provided the book in record time, and now I have found another poem I've heard before .... "I am an African ..."
Isn't the internet wonderful !!
