UGANDA Dear Uganda When I wrote for the rhymers, I saw you With talent that had no other That day was so bright with you filling those seats in theater I was glad that you saw talent in you Knowing how much you could do better For you the pearl of Africa I write Not a song but a poem For each time I find a poetry group I look for you To give me courage To give me hope Hope that you have always built in me Like a dream that comes true with love For the sight of you, Uganda Gives me hope to write To believe That in you In me In poets We are made Yet we create
