Weep No More Rainbow Land

Weep no more rain-bow land for thy dream of freedom thou hast realised from the struggles and pains of thy son Nelson Mandela who hath transcended to the world beyond,his reward he receive. The great elephant hath fallen! great is the fall o'er the earth as sea of heads gather to witness the demise of this great legend. Madiba thou belief in equality reminds me of Martin Luther king(jnr) who same belief shared. He was a great man dat stood his ground for liberation of d black skin and the equality of all. Weep no more for out of your root hath sprang icons for life that made difference like Micheal Jackson, Nelson Mandela, brenda,Lucky dube etc. We bear heavy hearts as the era of these great hearts folds leaving a legacy for us to tread upon. Listen,the wind sings as echoes of his tales are heard in future.
