Sing Me A Song, Ma

Sing Me A Song, Ma is a collection of poems for children and their families, some of the poems are set in Nigeria, and a few in England, where I live. I have also thrown in a poem set in Jamaica, where I've been lucky enough to visit. Some of my poems are bit about our environment, for example the poem titled, Grandma's Tree, which is about how we take the trees for granted, and yet we expect them to bear fruits for us to eat, but if we look after them properly they will give us lots of joy.. Sing Me A Song, Ma, is a light, fun poem, about a child who doesn't want to go to sleep and uses all sorts of clever ways to stay up by requesting a special song that will inspire her to dance, but the mother doesn't want to go along with that. Rain is about how important water is and how in some parts of the world people have to save rain water for daily use, and also, it's about how a heavy rainfall can affect the lives of poor people.
