The House of South Africa

...They were the dedicated leaders who endured gigantic sufferings for this house Their red waters flourished the freedom we are enjoying today They rested for good in the pool of blood until were found by their spouse Their hearts stood beating, but were beaten ’n bones broken for this way But people of today depicts not even tiny gratefulness for what they have done Today leadership is an opportunity to develop one’s house Unlike in the past where leadership was intended at developing the house of S.A Party manifesto is their only way to steal people’s house and win their position. Lord have mercy, OUR house is sinking down the drain This is not what they have fought for is it? Change the course of this house into house of fair and plain Promote equality, one house, one nation, one kit In leadership, Lord change the love of money into strong passion To change the world into a better house for all in nation not CORRUPTIO

Powerful poetry, Reuben! The last two lines hits w/the force of a sledgehammer. Keep the LOVE and KNOWLEDGE flowing in your pen's river of truth. A soul-stirring poem, my friend. I loved it so much. Great message in the words of this mighty fine poem. Sun bright poetry. May love light your path always.

Btw ... CORRUPTIO is such a cool word. With your blessing, I'm gonna have to use it in one of my poems, Lord willing, in the near future. Love and more love to you and yours.
