A New Era Poem by Arnee Akpan

Like an Eagle watches
We have watched him
Like a burning flame in the midst of rain
Like a glass, he is transparent
Like the stars,
He is in a competition to see who shoots brighter
But we just need the sun


Like the Olive's providence,
Like a shadow shades man
Like the ray and beam of light,
He has appeared after our journey through the tunnel
Like the cries of the Israelites was heard
Ours has been heard
And our Moses has arrived
Jubilee is here



He represents the future of today
He represents equity
He represents leadership
He represents the truth
He represents justice
He represents the revolution and evolution of unity and intelligence
With faith and confidence
We accept to be his ladder to the the roof top

For a new era has arrived.
