Uganda: A Limerick from Uganda


There once was a SCAW team from Canada
That volunteered to travel to Uganda
They worked hard with Kampala’s Inner Wheel
Who always prepared a tasty midday meal

Will the children like the bedkits they were bringing?
And the ladies were dancing and singing


Carefully setting up bedkits for the children to view
Including new outfits, red, green, yellow and blue
A mattress, a bucket, bedding, sandals and math set
Thanks to the donors they now have a mosquito net



Posing for a photo with a big smile, you know
At last, free to go home, bedkit in tow



So dear, sweet children of Uganda, we hope you sleep tight
Your new mosquito nets won’t let those bugs bite
We hope you enjoy the bedkits we were bringing
And the Inner Wheel Ladies keep dancing and singing
