‘My country….’ that’s hard for me.. I don’t feel like I live in ‘My country…’ so I’m going to answer this for New Zealand….. which was home, but not where I currently live.
Freedom, Green, Dynamic, Self-reliance, Unique.
Religious, populous, confused, militaristic, non-integrating.
United States.
Land of Hope and Glory England of course! :¬)
@Ivan Which country is that?
@cubozoa I’m guessing maybe it’s the Virgin Islands :¬)
The U.S.: fervor, ignorance, power, consumption, political.
New Zealand
Small, Bold, Clean, Green, Cultural
Unable to come up with five words that encapsulate a country of such diverse populace, politics and beliefs, but…
I give you a two-part poem about America that describe, at least through a poet’s eyes, what our country is and what we wish it to be.

@silvermoon Love it… Bold! So wonderfully true. I miss David Lange… he was an amazing statesman.
Green, warm, pretty, fun, in the middle of nowhere
@silvermoon I’m sure you should include sheep as one of the five for New Zealand, and maybe hobbits too.
