Acrostic poem in honor of Africa Day 2010
Africa
America and the world admire you.
From long past, you have been and will ever be extensive, green, and beautiful
Rivers, enormous mountains, and wildlife you possess
Iridescent nobility, love, and boldness
Continent of heroic and valiant people
All the world you embrace on this day, opening your arms with gigantic joy.
