The Great Wall of China

Chinese slaves place their stones, Breaking muscles and bones. Defending its territory, It shines in pitiful glory. Yet this wall stands tall, To defend those whom befall. Those dark days have passed, And now united at last.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
