Where are you New York?

Come to my land with your city

For i am in pity

Here i throw my shoes

please let them not fall in the sea

Open your hands and catch them

Hide them in your suitcase
for someday, i will ask of it.

well, as an orphan and a poor African book with a great writing talent. it is my dream to someday live in America, New York. And i was so much obsessed with the dream that, i couldn't sleep than to write a poem about it. i wrote this to inspire myself that no matter how long it takes, i will someday visit America. that is i am establishing contacts so when i am in New York, i won't be lost.i also wrote this poem to tell the world how much i love to be in New York...
