The smile of Africa

Africa!

Mother of mankind,
mother of me

Rainwet green trees
and dusty land

Slippery roads
and burning sun

Poverty and joy
Aids and praise

Man and animal
Ivory and ebony

Violence and care
Beauty and beast

Cellphone and hatch
Playing kids and long, long days

How can I ever paint your smile?
