Oh how I long to see ancestral home
It’s majestic mountains and valley roams
The vast seas and grassy lands
From rivers deep to desert sands
I am an unwilling transplant
Brought as a seed within man woman
Transported against their will
Stolen away for their genes and skill
Africa will you pray for me
As I plot to visit you happily
I feel we will get along fine
And chat as if no passage of time
You will see me in reflection of you
The old tales that told of my truth
You I hope not to disappoint
For my bones share the motherland’s anoint
Will your spirit remember my own
I wish to feel it that welcome home
I may dress foreign and not speak the tongue
But one look and you’ll know where I’m from

I paid a buck for a Buck skin Coat
I watched a Duck, duck the propellers of a Boat
I’ve seen the Tears ; of Tears in my Heart*
I See the Caribbean Sea Tear my Life Apart
To be Cont.
I know ; very bad of me , I Dedicate this to myself in Celebration of going back to school
For a bachelors’ Degree in English LOVE YOU ALWAYS and FOREVER, YOUR Eternal Liege…Harry
