As I stroll on the beaches of the 2007
I enjoy the sound of the rumbling waves
which evoke memories of joy, pleasure and even sadness when considered the events that have been taking place in Somalia over the past 12 months. But still I see 2007 as a year of success and look forward to a better world in the years that lie ahead where people of different religions and cultural backgrounds can share life in basis of humanity.

December is the end of each year
It is time to review resolutions
But I love this year's December
In it I see a speck of pure success
Shining brightly deep in my heart
Taking me to retreats of mental peace
Bringing me in mutual contact with my dreams

As I surf the pages of my 2007 plans
I feel pleased with my accomplishments
Though at times sad enotions punctuate the visit
Somalia is sheltering in the sound of explosions
