This poem was nominated poem of 2005 for the best poem, written by an African kid.........amazing!!

When I born, I Black,
When I grow up, I Black,
When I go in Sun, I Black,
When I scared, I Black,
When I sick, I Black,
And when I die, I still black..

And you White fella,

When you born, you Pink,
When you grow up, you White,
When you go in Sun, you Red,
When you cold, you Blue,
When you scared, you Yellow,
When you sick, you Green,
And when you die, you Gray..

And you calling me Colored ??

dear human....
just look up above you
in that wonderful sky
ask this question
what am I? what's my purpose? who is my creator?
seek guidance from the one and only God
the one and only God will guide you
because he is ALLAH
