    Our Greater Treasure

    Poets depict you in poem and prose
    Artist paint you like a glorious rose
    Men from lands afar come to see
    Your incredible beauty,and indulge in your rich history
    Holland .....England.....Scotland ...Ireland ....France...Spain..... Africa
    Is where we all came from
    To one of the smallest islands
    Under the Caribbean sun
    History ...a tapestry of colors for all to see
    Yet for years we went unnoticed ,by the owners that be
    Yet onward and upward we trekked straight through
    Carving out our niche on you

    Saba unique and splended
    Rising so majestically from the sea
    You are testamentof the hard-work and perseverance
    Of our ancestors
    Who came to treasure thee

    Interesting, I like it it, we strive to the top of things, speaking for myself, I know it's along way to the top if you want to rock n roll, so one may just sit at the foot of the mountain, and listen to the stories, and poems of the ones that made it, and the ones that fell down, ty WS

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
