Ugonna Wachuku
Day breaks in on us slowly.
Today's journey through life
will be full of riddles and
hope.
Life will surely bring new
suprises and strange
shadows to humankind,
globally.
Shadows of this new day
will certainly accompany
us through inspiring village
paths and forests of hope
and inspiration.
On our way to the farm,
new meaning to life will
be found, with creativity
and innovation through
ancestral green leaves
in home forests.
Ancestral footprints will
be followed on our way to
plant hopeful crops for our
coming harvest.
Whether there will be a
harvest, we cannot tell.
The world have changed so
much since grandma and
grandpa were children
in the family.
Then, our ancestors could
smell good weather and
refreshing rain. Now, we
smell cyclones, nuclear
pollution and destructive
rain filled with this flaming
scent of climate change
and inflicted instability.
Anyway, my friends, we
are headed for the farm:
We must plant our crops
for hopeful coming harvest.
We have fresh, good hope
for healing of humankind.
We have bountiful, fresh
dreams and love for beloved
humankind's thriving survival
on this trying earthly journey
called life.
Our dreams are real and
worthy enough to go round
enchanting earth with love
and family oneness.
Come, my love.
Come, humankind.
Share the dream
of my simple soul.
Cape of Good Hope
darling, share our
dream of bountiful
new harvest and
healing for humanity.
Come, my friends.
Walk with us through
ancestral village paths
to our farm of hope,
healing and love
unchained.
Come, all of you
who will:
Globally, walk with us,
gladly, this new day;
for humankind's
abiding

A poem filled with hope for the beauty of the old world to survive in spite of the destructive nature of a modern life that threatens to destroy the beauty of the land & a way of life.. Amy

for some reason I could see this poem on a huge flag or on a huge blue sky for the whole world to see feelings that set free the mind on todays nature and world..

Bonjour(Swiss) Ugonna, As I read your poem, I thought about those who did not make it to another day, following the attacks on New York twin towers and on the Pentagone. Yes each day is a day of hope even if the changing world around us threatens to rob us of our subsistence, loved ones and hope. Each day is a new beginning not only for us but also for the coming generations. We have to pass on the dream unless we die. This poem is fitting for such time as this. Thank you Michelle

For some reason one of my favourite books comes to mind, "The Good Earth", by Pearl S. Buck. A book which still lends passages to my mind, years after reading it for the second time. Of course I would like to think that most of us do 'keep the dream' of green pastures close to our hearts. Again the form of the last three stanzas is a goblet. And the wine flows freely dripping from the stem. An inspirational image!

This poem shows that sometimes we don't know what life can bring us. Only with Hope and understanding does we seem to move forward in life. keep up the great work
