Land and Ownership
His forefather migrated,
He left his kinsmen,
He left his clan,
He went in search of a home,
He journeyed far from his homeland,
He traversed territories,
None was befitting to settle,
Some were private properties,
Others lacked the serenity he desired,
He journeyed further until he found a place,
A place that embraced him,
A place of pristine beauty,
A place where the river
goes in a tranquil flow,
He grew and became great,
From a few people to a great nation.
