Africa

Africa, the cradle of civilization!

From its bowels flow the great Niles.

Four thousand one hundred and sixty miles,

Three tributaries combine.

The Blue Nile, the Atbara, and the White Nile.

The father of Africa’s rivers,

The vein, through which flows the life

Of several African countries. The Nile!

Africa’s pride, spewing its contents

Through its mouth into the Mediterranean.

The valley of kings, along the banks of the Nile,

Noble, Nubian-bred, brave sons.

Africa, exhibiting the largest waterfall in the world.

The great Victoria Falls.

With fame entrusted, not self-imposed

But by visitors proclaiming it to be.

The most beautiful place on earth!

South Africa’s Victoria Falls.

Africa: Land of the mighty Mount Kilimanjaro,

With its three volcanoes, wearing its white snowcap.

Blending with the smoke expelled

From its three volcanoes back grounded

By cloudless blue sky, in infinity portrays

Africa, the land of the Sahara untamed,

But not uninhabited nor abandoned.
