West Indian

As the waves roll in and lash upon the rocks Is like in the slightest cool breeze I could hear And with out fear , a distant voice saying to to be hold something greater than me. Yes in this place I will plant my seed because This soil is blessed with three unseen spirits and will grow after toil of sweat, blood and tears and my generations will come to know me. A man of distinction, yes I am a West Indian !
