Revolution

The morning cool breeze of June
Stroke my skin gently,
There came a sort of brightness,
Eyes opened,
And I was welcomed into today's day by light;
A glimmer of noontime sun.

My vision so clear,
Clear enough to see the brightness of the day,
But I grope in the light 
In search of what I have on sight,
   Yet
I need no lens to rid me
Of a blur vision.

Stand as entity
For the future stares with uncertainty
Like a leaf tossing in the air.

I am glad you did. This poem is about Africa, Africa has all resources need to develop as the rest of the world, but seem to be blind to realize that, or perhaps not bold enough to take initiatives.
