Stories of Hope: Poem of Thanksgiving

Thank You Giving Hope Group

By Eric Maore from Faith Working Group in Kenya

Oh Giving Hope Group,
What else can I do?
What else can I say?
Apart from thanksgiving?
Yes! yes! yes
I know and I have experienced,
Your kindness,
You have given food,
You have given education,
What else can I really say?
Apart from spreading your good name.

Ah! Ah! Ah!
Yes I have done agriculture
I have planted Sukuma Wiki,
I have planted maize and beans,
I have reared goats,
And now am agriculturally upright,
I have had enough food, and earned income,
What can I say or do
Apart from singing your goodness?

Oh Giving Hope,
You have fought HIV/AIDS,
You have taught us,
Ways to abstain and prevent it,
Thanks a lot because you,
Saved me,
From the anger,
This strong killer MR. AIDS,
I thank you I am not dead,
I had a narrow escape from AIDS.
You are so! So! So!
Generous, kind and honest,
You look after the orphans and the poor.
Yes I understand you have fought poverty.

Finally I convey,
My sincere gratitude,
To you giving hope,
On behalf of faith group,
And my country Kenya,
For your efforts,
Keep up,
Giving Hope!
Giving Hope!
You are a delicate flower,
That needs to be nurtured well every time.
Endless thanksgiving.
