Amos Mkubwa
Water is a very essential friend of all that God created. It’s part of every life. But most people take it just lightly. We are in a world of massive destruction of all that our God created with full of health and glowing. The phenomenon surrounding all these is the conversation of climate change. Majorly I want to address Africa as a whole. I mean all black people either living in Africa or the diaspora. Don’t we see how our brothers and sisters suffer in draught striken communities? It’s so sad seeing animals dead. Climate change is here to stay unless we take it up and fight this elephant in the house. As young people, let’s raise and grab the AI into our brains and make use of them wisely. It’s our time to gang up in planting and growing millions of trees. I and a team of young writers under Black Art edutainment group Kenya are on a project ” Let me breathe project 2023-2033″ of planting as many trees as possible and write as many books as our lives would sustain us.
As we celebrate WORLD WATER DAY, may our leaders support the youths and support initiatives by the youths. Let all ministries get fully involved in the campaign. Let government support and sensitize more youths with the AI skills and knowledge.
Poem.
Water is so precious
Water is more than life
Water is colourless
Water is tribeless
Water is from God
Water all over
Water
Now come
And fill
My barrels
Bless me
And bless Africa
So we may wake up from
The mindset of colonization
Free up black people.
