Poem title-OH MY COUNTRY


Despite the plentyfulness of fruit
In our garden we still live in misery and
Poverty,we have emaciated bone
Due to malnutrition,
We have no home to stay
When the rain comes
We have no clothes to
Cover our unclothedness
We have been denied
The three basic needs of
Life by our myopia leaders
Oh my country,my country
My country




The drivers claim to know it all
Now they are driving us
Through the wrong path
Our future has been jeopardize
Due to our selfcentreness we
Never knew we are responsible
To one another our children are
To bear the consequences of our
Wrongs,our leaders believe in the
Ordinary Minted paper to be their
Life they never knew we were born
In this world hand closed and we
Shall leave this world hand opened
Oh my country,my country,my country






Our future would be determined
By our hands let me be the
Hangman that would hang myself
For the future of my nation,
Since the status quo is
Ineffective against these
Kleptocracy let there be
Revolution.

Oh my country,my country,my country
