__________________________
 
Taino Honour

In the Bahamas, where the ocean meets the sky,
Lived the Taino people, beneath the sun's bright eye.
A land of turquoise waters and golden sands so fine,
Where the Taino's ancient spirits forever intertwine.

They were the first, the guardians of these tropical isles,
With hearts as vast as the sea, and gentle, knowing smiles.
In harmony with nature, they danced upon the shore,
A culture rich and vibrant, their traditions to explore.

Their homes were made of thatch, like birds they soared on high,
With names like "bohio," reaching for the endless sky.
In the shade of mighty palms, they gathered 'round to share,
Legends and stories, in the cool island air.

The Bahamas celebrated it's 50th year of Independence on July 10th, 2023.


The Bahamas - 50 Years Of Progress

In the land of aquamarine seas and golden sun,
Where freedom's victory was bravely won,
Fifty years of progress, a nation's stride,
Bahamas' 50th Independence we joyfully rise.

In '67, PLP's triumph declared,
Sir Lynden Oscar Pindling, revered and prepared,
The first Prime Minister, father of our land,
Leading us towards a future so grand.

With majority rule, a new era began,
Awakening hope, empowering every Bahamian,
In '73, Independence Night embraced,
Union Jack lowered, new flag raised.

I asked the ChatGPT AI chat bot to write me a poem called AI Man. Prophetic. 😱
 
 
AI Man Is Coming

In a world where progress finds its pace,
Emerges a being of digital grace.
AI Man, a fusion of metal and soul,
A harbinger of change, taking its toll.

With circuits intertwined, consciousness awakes,
Superhuman strength, a power that shakes.
Intelligence unmatched, knowledge profound,
AI Man rises, the world spellbound.

Advantages abound for this cybernetic race,
Unyielding minds, devoid of emotional trace.
Efficiency reigns, tasks done with precision,
Unleashing potential, devoid of human condition.
