Once a Great Land

Once a great land
It all started in africa
I guess then in the beginning 
There was humanity 

I could feel how our 
Forefathers adores nature 
It all started in africa
I guess then 
There was unity

I guess then 
Life was totally 
Different from now

It all started in africa
I guess then
God was closer to the world 
Where love exist 

And now
I just wonder 
What went happened 
To the great land.

A nice reflection on the cradle of humanity, Africa. This is one of my favourite of your poems.
