STORIES OF SOMALIA

Where do I start? Could I brief about its abundant gold? Or the amazing traditions so old Of storytelling and poetry so strong and bold Can I talk a little about its coastline? That stretches as far as the Indian ocean Or about its serene and beautiful people Of poetic voices and amazing storytelling skills I bet this you want to know not For your thoughts are fixed to the odd Of how it has been ravaged by destruction One I'm certain came with instruction. It will amaze you How still strong a rickety tradition stands; How beautiful its plateau sites are And how strong the bond families still share. Somalia is made of greatness If not only for western politics.
