Analysis of Africa



The land of my birth; where Gods ingenious creation was fulfilled upon man. Where kids gathered around in the beautiful born fire, listening to folk tales from their grandparents. Where the grass is green and the air so pure and clean, where mama and papa lived…I still miss that golden sunshine.
