Australia - The Way Forward Poem by Paul Warren

What is with all the protest
Are we different from the rest?
In any country there is enough to divide
And why should you be made to take a side
I don't like the way that this country was colonised
When the British claimed the land terra nullius did not abide

It seems that there cannot be a final word had
Whilst there is protest and unhappiness being so bad
Perhaps it is time to cut through all the guff
And work our way to settle once and for all the fuss
Getting back their land is part of the Aborigine plan
Now let us write a treaty and we can right wrongs in our united stand.
