Dedicated to the memory of Miriam Makeba Aka "Mama Africa" March 3, 1932 – November 10, 2008

Dedicated to the memory of Miriam Makeba Aka "Mama Africa" March 3, 1932 – November 10, 2008 We sang your praises As you finished your song We asked for more At the precise moment God Called you home His Will is Devine His Grace undefined As He allowed us to embed in our memories The precious gift of you singing "Pata Pata" One last time To those who were there On that predestined night And those who were not In times that are always changing Leaving the personal and political sacrifices of the past Buried and lost I implore you to Let not those of of the songstress, poet, activist, mother to a Nation, Continent and Race be for naught… ©2008 The1Essence ALL RIGHTS RESERVED EXCLUSIVELY BY The1Essence No parts of this poem may be reproduced, distributed or otherwise copied in any form, without the expressed written permission of the author.
