This poem was originally written on 9th October 2011. back when I was still schooling at Barbro. I used to spend my nights staring at the skies, how the stars twinkled and how they stayed in constellations. Though I never knew specific one, I remember waking up early in the morning just to rush outside to see the three stars (commonly referred to as the Orion in astronomy). I remember sitting by the window in my class to stare at the beautiful birds that flew around; some plain white, some with bright colors like those of a rainbow and some with very calm and cool colors. I remember watching the trees symbolizing the seasons throughout the year by shedding leaves then letting them grow again, a process I witnessed recursively year by year. I remember the rains, how strong they were, the chilliness they brought, the drizzles, the erosional and depositional activities. And instead of white water channels we had brick-red water channels. It was a perfect sight of God’s creation and that is why on that particular day, guided by the Spirit to give God praise I wrote these words, to tell a little of the greatness of God.

So today on World Poetry day I’ve decided to share it with the world
