The Bahamas

Poem: The Bahamas

Poem Bahamas

 

The Bahamas is my home
I won't trade it for the world

The Bahamas is my abode
it's where the sun shines bold

 

The Bahamas is where I reside
and where the sea surrounds the pride!

The Bahamas is a place of dreams
and its islands are of historical fame

 

The Bahamas has been blessed
by peoples of the worlds' best

It is the islands of the multi-cultured
and the people are warm and historic

 

The Bahamas is protected by God
and Bahamians are thankful for his love

The Bahamas is a prosperous nation
thus, thanks to the Father of creation

 

The land of the sun, sand and sea
oh my Bahamas, it will always be!

Bahamas People

Bahamas people give thanks to God…
for surviving the age of slavery's cord
Blacks and whites simmer peacefully as one…
in the mist of the racism gun

Bahamas people praise the lord…
descendants of slaves and masters in accord
Bahamas people are happy and proud…
to God the Father they sing aloud

Bahamas people depict the globe…
living as one in their ethnic robes
Bahamas people enjoy being free…
turning back will never be

Bahamas people is a melting pot…
singing and dancing and whatnot

Verses of culture… lyrics to behold

Living the life of sustenance
The sea of faithfulness…
Surrounds with grateful stocks

On rocks fishing
An evening’s swim…
