My latest poetry piece, a tribute to America!

  

America the Beautiful

©  2017  Sy’needa  Penland

For the pain sake of

my fruitful Earth,

I give rebirth to thee;

Resurrected Spirits,

Lone Soldiers,

defenders of

Truth and Liberty.

Confederate Warriors

of our past,

proudly carry

the torch of thee;

America the Beautiful,

Great Statute of Liberty;

Alone in her moat,

the shackles you broke,

while heaving the tension

of the Queen’s mighty boats;

Body’s lay buried

along America’s creeks,

paved the way for the strong,

while Baron’s buried the week;

Decayed bodies

absorbed your pain,

your blood-stained shores,

once home of the Moors;

Great celestial navigators,

whose history reduced

to mere folklore;

European painters of fantasy

brought you to life–by illusion–

mere hypocrisy of the past–

the ultimate delusion;

Tales of conquered

shores–no more!

America the Beautiful,

is home to her shores!

Her Rainbows of Love,

from her Universal

Heavens above;

rebirthed into our hearts,

the Energy of Divine Love;

As Love is to Air,

Her Divine Essence

is everywhere;

As Air is to Earth,

she shall sow seeds

of rebirth;

As Water is to Fire,

Divine Passion

fuels her desire,

to cleanse her

shores of sin;

As the Season

of Divine Love

is restored

into her Soul,

once again.
