This poem is dedicated to the Iranian people. Especially a very good friend of mine.


THE GREEN GENIE IS FREED!

The genie is out , freed from the bottle ,

Panderer 's box opened ,

Three steps forward , two steps back ,

One step forward gained ,

Freedom closer , the people learnt to talk,

To debate ,

Breathed the air of freedom ,

To the armour of freedoms brake fast cooking,

Drank from stream of freedom now running free

through the desert , now no longer parched ,

Green are the shoots now sprung free ,

Hear the pell of freedoms bell's ring out ,

There will be thorns , there will blood

But grasp the green rose all the same ,

The green Genie's is out of the bottle!

Green is the colour!

The Dyslexic Poet, Ken D Williams
