CALL OUT TO SOMALIA
(Based on C.N.N'S Anderson's interview, with theSomalia-Mother)
(i)
'It is with God' she o-pines.
In humble hope,she wearily stands.
Stretched on skeletal limbs of pain-
(prodded,and quizzed,by C.N.N. cams)
Her cry emotes,an international blitz
Global cries;Emphatic-Whys ;
O Let Us In Love-Cry Out To Somalia...
Call Out,To This,Aching Land.
(ii)
I must call out, to Somalia
My heart, calls out, to this land.
Guns and food provisions-
Should not;in derision, go hand in hand.
Oh see the tearful, needy hearts
'Midst rancid, hateful demands:
Call Out,To Somalia...Call Out,To This Land.
(iii)
We must call out: In Love, for Love
That it may, permeate, the land.
Malnourished bodies to feed-
Ill-nourished minds, to heal:
We Must Call Out,To Bitter/Sweet Somalia...
We Must Call Out,Take That Stand.
(iv)
Youth,marred,by holocaust of disasters-
At adults'purile,bellicosed hands.
O we weep, for Bleeding -Somalia...
Sweet Lord ; Heal the land:
Oh Call Out, I say,To Somalia...
Call Out, To This Land.
(v)
Too many destined : 'To No More Wave A Flag'
'Won't Get Older'...Mummified young lips,won't reply.
Stronger, Must Be, Our Vision;
More pragmatic;our social decrees
Nourish, Somalia's People-
Feed Bellies and Hearts-Their deprieved glee:
Call Loudly Then,To Somalia..
Holler Out, In An Uncommon Degree.
(vi)
We must call: Out and Into; The Horn-of-Africa
Pray steadfast-Peace, on Somalia's Shores.
Moisten warring-hearts,and trysting minds
(scarring denizens,very souls)
Beckon Her in Love,To steady-Nationhood
Letting 'Prayer' and 'Action' kiss :
Opine Hope,O 'Waving-Nations'-
"It Is With God...So It Is Our Lift"
Reach Out To Somalia, I tell You..
Call Love,Clall Peace, Call Bliss.
