Poem: On This Ground We Stand

On this ground we stand

As the sun splits the clouds

From time to time

While the song is clear to hear

Many a soul is creating their story

 

What makes the place so special?

Is it the people we meet?

The stories we tell?

Or this land?

 

Bursting with imprinted memories

Historical events turned into tales

To share with others

 

What do we leave but footprints,

Litter, glitter and song?

Once our playground

Forever our resting place

 

Waves keep crashing

And the sun will rise again
