The following poem was written as part of a poetry-writing event at Spurgeons Academy, to mark World Poetry Day
One East African community
Working together in peace,
Aiming for unity
That is my wish
One Regional Trading Bloc
Working together in peace,
Standing like a rock
That is my wish
One set of regional laws
Observed by all members,
Containing no laws
That is my wish
One region without border
Where everyone listens to,
Common orders are followed,
That is my wish
Let’s all work together
To make the EAC work.
I don’t know whether
You share my wish.
