Poem 1:

__**Africa Speech**__ My arms are open to you, to you, the people of Africa, to you, the people who need help. I come in peace, not violence. I come to help not destroy. I come to supply, not dominate. I come to end, to end hunger, to end the violence, to rid of the bad, and bring the new, the new Africa, the new food, the new health, the new happiness. I provide food, shelter; neither hunger nor disease. To end the spread of the desert; the desert that dominates, the desert that eats up farmland, farmland that could feed you. Put trust in the arms that are open to you, and you will see; Africa will rejoice in newly found Happiness!!!

Poem 2:


 * __Broken__**

I'm broken, broken like a shredded tire, shredded to pieces, shredded like slashed through paper. Heartbroken, my heart in pieces, scattered everywhere. Torn limb by limb, because I'm broken.

Poem 3:


 * __Light__**

Bending, twisting, through the trees like a river. Bright, shiny, like a beam from a light house. Light
