Have You Ever Been To Africa
Part I.
I boarded the plane I'm on my way home to Africa! seat belted and all fasten in my seat
on the plane headed for Africa!I'm on my way to Africa my travels and journeys begin.
After traveling thousands of miles going home to the motherland where I am greeted,loved
by my family and friends,with pearly white teeth and smiles.The plane is ready to land
on the blanket of mother earth Africa!I peer out the window my goodness huge trees
I see several giraffes dining on trees a swift graceful gazelle running through the
planes of Africa!I'm in West Africa Nigeria arriving in Benin my journey to Lagos
continues to my final destination to Sapele Nigeria.Africa where I will be loved
and greeted with these words,in sound like the word dough,doe,doe,doe,doe,doe,doe,doe
I will continue to say doe for all the times that have been missed,we will continue to
embrace and greet each other until someone starts to laugh
a Nigerian greeting our child has come home,back to us here in Africa!
