little ones
do you know
that you are the descendants of
the Kings & Queens of Africa
little ones
do you know
that your ancestors were
musicians and artists
farmers and herdsmen
scientist, healers, and scholars
architects and builders
little ones
do you know
that in this new land
you are still
a wonder to behold
little ones
do you know
that you are more
precious to us
than gold
little ones
grow, grow, grow
in love
in peace
in wisdom
little ones know
that you are love
