Allegiance To Mother Land Poem by Imo Peter

Dear motherland!
Only you I own, to you I owe
A commitment of wholly and remit of just
A love undefiled and will of divine
A sense of truth and strength of trust
A vision to explore and mission to restore
A strive to duty to polish your beauty
A thought of freedom in time of thraldom
A pledge to honour your call to honest
A fight to defend your dignity in dent
A Zeal in premiere to seal your prestige
A Labour of hope to thrive your home
A dream to salvage and thrill your valour
A duty to heed to your calls to deeds
Your dignity I am dutifully bound to restore
Your integrity I must gallantly bound to preserve
Never again shall you be clothed in garment of shame
Arise shall I
To radiate your rays of pride
