Another Day!
04th February 2021
Written by: Donna Africa
Dedicated to: Freedom!
Another day........
Will I or you survive or die today?
What do the Gods predict or say?
Everyday another number
tragically passes away!
We count our blessings
And say our prayers
Our freedom and liberty taken away!
When will we be free to have a normal day?
To have the freedom to have our say?
I await that anticipated day
That you and I
Can have our say
Not to be controlled
Manipulated and possibly
led astray
That is the day
That I pray!
In the meantime
Its just another day!
God Bless
Bring on the Clowns!

Bring on the Clowns!
Written by Donna Africa
Today 23rd April 2020
Down, down, down
Coming, around, around
Where are the clowns
Now, now, now?
Life bringing us all
Down, down, down
Bring on the clowns
Now, now, now!
If only for a while,
To make us all smile,
Smile, smile,
Where are the clowns?
Now, now, now!
Where are the clowns
To alleviate our fears
and not to drown
in cascading flood of tears
Now, now, now?
Bring on the clowns
To bring much needed joy
Back to our children’s playgrounds
To hear their joyous laughter
A future for our new generation
To carry on forever after!
Bring on the clowns
Nowhere to be found
As we live in lockdown
I fear a social breakdown
So please, I scream
Bring on the clowns
Now, now, now!

Today 24th March 2020
The time has come to unite
To collectively fight the good fight
As coronavirus does not discriminate
Whether rich or poor
Black or white
This invisible killer will not hesitate
To kill and eradicate us all!
Let’s pray to the Almighty
before it infects us all!
A Ghost town
All around us closing down
A-tishoo A-tishoo we all fall down!
Panic buying on the streets
No care or thought for those
most vulnerable,
left with nothing to eat!
Self isolation the key
To try and curb this
Ferocious beast!
It’s Appetite not sated
Leaves us devastated
And afraid of this pandemic
As new laws about to be legislated!
Boris Johnson says stay at home
NHS doctors and nurses
severely stressed
Battling to save lives
Thank you NHS
As we are heavenly blessed!
Our normal lives gone awry
Death toll sky high
The great equaliser of all

This invisible killer will not hesitate
To kill and eradicate us all!

As we are heavenly blessed!
Our normal lives gone awry
The great equaliser of all
Let’s not let it destroy us all!
Adhere to what our leader
Boris Johnson is our saviour!
Our liberty temporarily on hold
As we unite in order to kill
Covid-19 which has no soul!
In all our great efforts to beat
And to make Covid-19 obsolete!
With Luv, Light and Liberty!
