Ghana - Laila Sholtz-Ames

Smiling faces, children too, little babies running - I can't catch you
Hot sun shines down on the Earth, red Earth, bright Earth
 Earth we live on, air we breathe, water runs clear or so it seems
 Ghana makes me feel good, Ghana makes me feel at home
 Ghana won't leave me here on this world alone.
 See the brilliantly colored pageants, hear the beat of the African drum
 move in time to the rhythm, remember that we are one.
Taste the flavorful food, hear the stories the elders have to tell.
 Things are different everyday, ever changing in many ways,
but Remember this is Ghana
  and know that all is well.
