Global Citizen Poem by Areena Arora

A bird mocked at me
I didn't know what it was for
realized later, was being teased
for it isn't just wings
which she has and I long for
it's the freedom she's got
and I pray for

The free will to reside on any nation's tree
I aspire for such freedom
I wish to be a global citizen
for no nation on earth
welcomes me as my birth land does
I wish to step on any land
and proudly howl
It's my earth
it's everyone's world

Let's join hands
and make this world just one EARTH
and not a land of some 100s and 100s of nations
Let's globalise
Let's be citizens
not of Asia, Africa, Australia
but of EARTH -- as citizens of 1 kind,1 blood..
