Go count the udders <br />The children and mothers <br />Who suckled the crying newborn <br /> <br />Go talk to the elders <br />Who sought naught but shelter <br />From the light from servants unknown <br /> <br />Lonely dark nights <br />And big city lights <br />Surround me <br /> <br />Life will astound <br />Both the young and the proud <br />Give heed to the ocean's white foam <br /> <br />Born in Atlantis <br />Meaner than a Preying Mantis <br />My country will always be home <br /> <br />Give me liberty <br />Give me death <br /> <br />I love this country <br />Until my dying breath <br /> <br /> <br />Shea<br /><br />John Shea<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lonely-bull/
