I will miss Uganda The people that made us feel most welcome That helped us learn as part of the team I will miss the sunshine Even the downpours and storms that stunned us And the dryness of earth that dusted our skin I will miss the hilltop views That look upon the cityscape of hectic humanity And roads filled with the danger of boda-bodas and matatus I will miss the expectation of casual tardiness Of moving like there’s no rush No better place to be so why hurry I will miss the adventure of discovering new places Of eating new things with new people And sharing stories of varied past I will miss Uganda and it says it misses me But as long as I remember I wont need to miss the memories

Missing Uganda
I will miss Uganda The people that made us feel most welcome That helped us learn as part of the team I will miss the sunshine Even the downpours and storms that stunned us And the dryness of earth that dusted our skin I will miss the hilltop views That look upon the cityscape of hectic humanity And roads filled with the danger of boda-bodas and matatus I will miss the expectation of casual tardiness Of moving like there’s no rush No better place to be so why hurry I will miss the adventure of discovering new places Of eating new things with new people And sharing stories of varied past I will miss Uganda and it says it misses me But as long as I remember I wont need to miss the memories
