Dormant aspirations lie in winter's fallow ground Burgeoning freedom furrowed in shallow soil; sovereign elements do pound Infertile seeds in barren hearths tightly wound A cold wind from on high scourges each, desolate mound A dreary drizzle from hovering, satin crowns seeps deep; hopes are drowned Nutrients for spawning growth are leached; blighting tentacles surround Ambition suppressed, inactive period of malaise doth abound In due season, warming rays of light shine thawing frozen hearts Incubating innate desire to fulfill individual destinies, from chained depth departs In destitute minds, a burgeoning sprout of liberty starts Branching forth into fertile souls, intestinal fiber imparts Taking root, it spreads deep, penetrating shielded ramparts A fragile frond from each wavering limb darts  Triumphing in tyrannous environment, a fruitful future charts

Arab Spring's Fruitful Dividend
Dormant aspirations lie in winter's fallow ground Burgeoning freedom furrowed in shallow soil; sovereign elements do pound Infertile seeds in barren hearths tightly wound A cold wind from on high scourges each, desolate mound A dreary drizzle from hovering, satin crowns seeps deep; hopes are drowned Nutrients for spawning growth are leached; blighting tentacles surround Ambition suppressed, inactive period of malaise doth abound In due season, warming rays of light shine thawing frozen hearts Incubating innate desire to fulfill individual destinies, from chained depth departs In destitute minds, a burgeoning sprout of liberty starts Branching forth into fertile souls, intestinal fiber imparts Taking root, it spreads deep, penetrating shielded ramparts A fragile frond from each wavering limb darts  Triumphing in tyrannous environment, a fruitful future charts
