This is a sonnet I wrote for my British and Literature class as an assignment we had to do. My teacher liked it a lot and complimented me on it, so I hope you enjoy it as much as she did.
It's about my great great great grandparents on my dad's side of the family that immigrated from Romania to America. At the time, a lot of immigrants from Ireland, Germany, Italy, Romania, and other countries facing problems, such as the potato famine in Ireland.
I had actually got the inspiration from an Irish poem called, "Mo bhrón ar an bhfarraige", (My grief on the sea). It's written in Gaelic but I have the English translation.

Secrets Of A Superpower
There is many things we keep a secret, for many differemt reasons. We all have secrets, big or small. America is no exception. He has swept many things under the rug, and one day, he has to leave for an unknown reason. The countries know he has secrets, but how many, and are they important? Dangerous? He was never open with another country, always ignoring their questions. So, the nations look through his bag as a result and find something interesting... (;-; Context time. Don't expect routinely or fast updates. Not that big brain. America is the oldest between Canada, Mexico, and himself, Mexico being the baby. Canon can just screw off- cause imma be including some slight OOC moments, but for the majority he is in character, or just slightly out of it. This is history based but will be historically inaccurate at times. This is basically a normal 'cOuNtRiEs rEaDiNg DiArYs' story because I have headcanons and no life, and, America is my favorite ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Thanks for reading if you do, completely understand if ya don't C:)) I'm noticing this story is very historically inaccurate, i mess up times and just am dumb, so, do your own research if you wanna, but don't think what I'm saying is gospel. Times are hard for my smol brain to comprehend lmaoComplete
