Poem: Survival

Photo credit: Robert Collins

Today

listen to the sound of hope

Today

Give thanks to the march of

freedom fighters for the black survival;

the human race.

Today

smile with the face of mercy:

Today

rise to the sound of grace,

Today

be gentle to the mirror of your face:

Today

forgive the ‘no’s and ‘yes’ that was misplace.

Today

love to the sound of life: your heartbeat

going dub be dub, dub be dub with a smile!
