A CHINESE POEM

poem by: Kenvil Atkins
Written on Jan 01, 2026

Ships drifting on the horizon
The smell of hay in the fields
Birds flying high, touching the clouds
A darkness fell upon the morning light
The sounds of war echo in the past
Through a whistling of bamboo swaying 
And the pelican jockeys for its domain
Searing heat, the farmer harvests soybeans
Feeding a people of a forgotten past
Who can bring the birth of a nation to boot
Kenvil Atkins, poet / for Caribbean Dreams poetry.

Even in the world of George Orval's 1984's prototype in China, life goes on as the farmer harvests his/her croup of soybeans. Their sounds of war did not just echo in the past but still is echoing globally today. Yes, they are the people of their forgotten and deleted past. Who can bring a nation to boot? Not the Russians, not the Iranians and not even the Americans. Only God Almighty, Jesus Christ can bring the birth of any nation to boot!
