HUMAN

So long were the years it took altogether 27 years 
breaking limestone.
Still have the vision from two feet window 
that reincarnated the country  by giving it his soul.

The view of sky was enough to conquer the world.
In small room made kingdom of his own.
Showed the immunity and will of human to he world.
Not good in his looks,but his heart and mind 
were absolute beauty to the world.
Long blue ocean made him feel to reach 
untouched boundaries of the world.

Warden were felt in prison of own prisoner,
seeing humblest man on earth.
People of world bestowed their  love on him.
So the greatest human on earth waved his hands 
to freedom after 27 long years.
