Cuba

Cuba

Mi Cuba linda

theres nothing more beautiful

than my Cuba

the solitary star of the carribean

she has suffered

many many years

her splendorous beauty

Deteriorated by the angry hearts of

greedy politicians

her heart heavy with

the pain of her peoples

hunger

hunger

neccesity

Forgotten shes been forgotten

not by her children

but by the world

She majestic and proud

her beauty eternal

those who discover her everyday

are awe stricken

shes like a caged bird

ready to be freed

Cuba is a beautiful country I'd love to visit! From a communist background I'm sad to see the corruption there. A lovely homage to a fantastic country. Your words are vivid and bold. Thanks for sharing!

Cuba, a place I'd like to visit. Maybe one day I can. A very lovely ode to that island, Xzenia Rose

This is a lovely tribute to your Cuba. I imagine a place of great beauty from your description.

I thought the closing lines were magnificent and vivid.
