Sing a Song
Learn to sing a song is simple
To sing a good song is difficult
But it's for an outlet of emotions
Regardless to happiness or sadness
Difficult to speak to oneself
But easier to sing a song
If you're happy sing it
If you're sad shout it
It just flows out like a stream
Your heart should hear it
Your loved ones should

Once Upon a Country
Once upon a time
In the distant past
There was a country
Built by the sweat of her adopted children
And painstakingly through thick and thin
Became God’s own country
The light of the world
Whenever she spoke, the international community stood still
Enemy countries quaked and trembled
While allies scampered to mollify
The police officer of the world
Once upon a time
His Excellency epitomized leadership

I pen this piece to revise an indent
There is this one popular question
I have always kept in position
That the very day I’d have the chance,
I’d play it and dance it for a balance
What is the state of health of our economy?
And how far are we from a weak economy?
How fresh

Your Excellency
The facade of your election;
Brings no accolade to the nation;
Your ambitions lack honesty;
And your actions are a travesty.
You travel abroad to collect honors;
Yet you ravel the region with horrors;
Some describe your style as canny;
Yet all ascribe your rule as tyranny.
With only your candidacy;
We have the ascendancy of autocracy;
We lack the decency of democracy;
We observe the
