Patrick Manning Poem by mark anthony st. rose

He was in front of his tomorrows,
spiraled by his yesterdays,
ahead of his time.
This was Patrick Manning,
a leader and a visionary,
who saw the splendid shore of an idyllic future;
a shore he perhaps prematurely tried to sail the island of
Trinidad and Tobago towards.
and so he like many other great men who have graced earth's terrain,
the profound beauty of his dreams may not be truly appreciated in
his lifetime, but many years after.
