Banana From Ghana - 4th Place

Lovely banana for gorgeous Anna 
It is imported, all the way from Ghana 
It tastes nothing but so sweet 
It is sold in every street 
It makes an emblem like a bandana

Oh Ghana

Our nation is very old
   the land of cocoa and gold
Here is found peace
   that never will cease

Great nation at birth foretold
    by the oracle of old
Half a century passed
    she's still at low class
Africa's hope she was meant to be
    but now what do we see?
Nkrumah's Ghana
     borrowing, begging for  manna
Aaaah! The beggar-borrower's bread
      is never sufficient, Granny said

CLIMBING GHANA

Courage was what fueled Nkrumah’s flame
Loyal he stood through storm and shame
Integrity carved in his every stride
Memorable his name will not subside
Beyond doubt Ghana’s finest head
In spirit and in stories still widespread
Never bowed to foreign hands
Ghana as Africa lost a visionary leader.

Generations rise on what he gave
Hope reborn from the hearts of the brave
Ashanti drums still beat his praise
Nation proud through darkest days
Africa’s light in Ghana lamp.
