Today’s prompt: Today I will……….
We celebrated our 69th Independence Day yesterday on 15th August 2015 and my haiku are also all about freedom and liberty.
Today I will dream
Of a happy place on earth
My country, my land.
Today I will sing
Unafraid and unrestrained
Freedom is my right.
Today I will meet
Life headlong, march on ahead
Liberty is mine.
Today I will not
Bow down to terror and hide
Bravery is I.
Today I will vow
No one is above the law
Justice is not blind.
Today I will wish
My mind remembers you all
Unsung, brave, heroes.
Today I will sow
The seeds of truth and valor
For the youth to reap.
Today I will live
Feeling safe as you are there
Guarding our borders.
