I Once Felt The Grass Under My Feet
I once felt the grass under my feet.
I could feel the vibrancy radiate through me
higher than the skyscrapers covering today’s skies.
I felt the sun on my face and heard the dulcet sound of
cascading waterfalls rather than trees falling into an abyss.
We once walked with curiosity and purpose; instead we
step mindlessly with our eyes purposely stuck to
our phones. I once saw people smile for no
apparent reason and you could feel their
Happiness --- where did it all go?
This poem is about:
My community
My country
Our world
