EXPLORE

Allotey Joseph 2002 (Accra)



Slowly we move like the snail
Ready on the sea to sail
Discovering new things on earth
Before we are taken away by death
Such a wonderful thing the creator made
Things that will never fade
Until the last generation is over
If you see me leing
Wait till the whole game is over

About this poem

it's basically about human beings moving out and exploring the endless wonderful things the creator made
