A New Vision Poem by sookdeo manansingh manansingh

The storm have ruin my dream
during the night
like a fallen warrior
after one great fight
the shattered frame reflect
my image of morality no more
from a palace of luxury and fame
to a changed prince to walk with the poor

my eyes are enlighten
to know what it means
to be truthful and pure
while i lavishly splendor
the gem of souvreignity
i overlook the sacrifice and pain the citizens endure
to be in their company and to understand
their plight my conscience be regain
tomorrow i will lift up my cross
of faith and be mindful of my gain

the future i can change
for i have the ability
to contemplate in my mind
as a leader to transform my emotion
into wealth i know how to find
the script of wisdom
my father give to me
will i uncover out of the dust
with the shield of time
and the breath of life
my duty i will make it a must

to give birth to a new vision
will eradicate the mistakes i
made before
in the cradle of my imagination
i will nurture the vine of intelligence
to spread beyond the limits of the shore
the rainbow over the horizon
be my witness which i will never repeat
as long as the stars can keep clear
the pathway of my goal
my purpose on earth will complete.
