The Final Mile
The Final Mile December 7, 2013
Madiba can I walk with you
On your final mile of life
As you grace the ground
With a peaceful sound
You walk the road of peace
You embraced the others
You made it happen on your way
You brightened up their day
The people you touched
The young and the old
Your words of peace
Discrimination must cease
You carried your load
To the end of the road
Goodbye my friend
We've reached the end
Madiba can I walk with you on
On your final mile of life
