Take a Shot Now
We had no memory
I know memories
Are kept in with every
Shots taken by few or
As family members
Groups or little children
Growing up together
Memories are preserved
In every shot nicely taken
Blacks or whites
Coloured or neutral
If there was a shot
Taken from time
Immemorial then memories
Would have been preserved
To the man who never
Takes a shot and to
The woman who missed
A shot taken for memories
Are kept in every single
Shot and forever we are
Reminded of the good old days
