Poetry to Inspire You
Rain
the sound of rain
a welcome reprieve
the plants, the grass
for the green they all ask
the trees have been thirsty
the willows have wept
the heavens have opened
to make everything wet

Our Nation
the roots of a nation
let us call it the Earth
seen from the Moon
a new perspective was birthed
this beautiful sphere
cloaked in water and land
had no divisions, no borders
drawn in the sand
there was freedom to flow
from one pole to another
the only restrictions might be
the seasons or weather
how can we ever
control lives’ migration
now we understand the whole Earth
is our home and our nation?
