A Poet Not a Writer
A poet not a writer
I want to adopt a new born African baby
And when they need food I won't let them go hungry
And I'll teach them to know right not just from God only
And I'll play with them every day so they don't ever get lonely
And I'll watch them go to school and learn how to grow boldly
And I'll see them stand strong for the reasons they told me
And I'll see them leave home and have their own family
And I'll write to them of a dream I had 30 years ago and wrote poetry.
