DAUGHTER OF THE SOIL
A Spell Of Very Dry And Harsh
Weather Today Caught Up With Me
The Sun Covered Up Immediately
In His Splendor Trying To Put A
Little Smile On My Face
Then The Moon Followed The Sun,
The Night Later Concealed It All!
Hun! These Happen To Be
The Good, The Bad And The Ugly
Of The World Of Climatic Conditions
From A Gigantic Window Of The World
The Window Seems Square And Small
It Unfolds And Unveils The Secrets Of Our Weather!
All Over The World
There I See A Woman
A Woman With Magic Fingers Standing In Front
Of The World Weather Unveiling The Costume Of
The masquerade Of Our Weather, Our World!
Standing On The Threshold Of History As
A Daughter Of My Soil With A Difference!
She Is The Proverbial Elephant Whose Presence
Ought To Be Acknowledged With All The Awe She Commands!
She Is The Pride Of Our World
She Is A Blessing To Our World
She Is One Of Her kind
She Weathers With The World As A Whole
Oh There’s Need For Her One Day To Reap
Bountifully The Fruits Of Her Weathering!
She Is A Daughter Of The Soil Of My Land
The Land Enriched And Diversified By THE ONE Above All!
Her Superiority Shows As She Displays
On The Map Of The World Moving From
South, West, East And North Pointing With
Her Magic Fingers!
From Afar We Feel Her Magic Touches On Our Weather!
Three Sixty Degree I Turn To Feel Your Words
You Are Indeed A Daughter Of The Soil With A Difference
Can’t Stop Being Proud Of You.
