Nelson Mandela

 
Mr Nelson Mandela!
What a wonderful fella,
Lived for neigh on one hundred years.
He did so much for peace,
And now with his decease,
South Africa mourns with its tears.

Captured by white men,
And then thrown in a pen!
For Twenty Seven years of his life.
Still fighting for peace,
He gained his release!
To join up with Winnie his wife.

They called him a fool,
But he got to rule!
As soon as the Blacks got their vote.
No more Black against White!
No more reason to fight,
They should put his face on a note.

In another hundred years,
When the worlds shed its’ tears,
Let’s hope, they remember, those who can.
His long fight against Apartheid!
And they celebrate with pride,
Mr Nelson Mandela the man.
