OPEN YOUR EYES
.
Everyday we pass by
Numerous opportunities lay by
But we fail to see them
Our eyes are strict and firm
Many resources lay around us
All for each one of us
But they lay a waste
Of its use, our eyes don’t have a taste
For how long will we refuse to see
The resources and opportunities at sea
They surface everyday batch by batch
But we pass by everyday without a catch
We are so unwilling to see new ways
We remain so stuck to our old ways
We complain of poverty and hunger in the land
It’s all because we refuse to look at our hand
Open your eyes and see
Open them, let them be free
To see and appreciate nature around us
To have a chance to taste the waters around us
The delicious sight of resources
All from various sources
The fragrant view of opportunities
Such amazing abilities
Let us open our eyes to see
The resources and opportunities at sea.
