Analysis of Trinidad & Tobago

I come from the land
Of steelpan and calypso.
Our national birds are:
The Scarlet Ibis and Cocorico.

Our main income
Is not having tourists,
But if you are travelling -
Put us on your list!

Visit the Devil's Woodyard
To witness mud volcanos
Or lime on Brian Lara Promenade;
Named after a national hero.

Can't forget our Pitch Lake -
It's in deep south, La Brea.
About Douen and Papa Bois
Hear what villagers have to say.

When on Maracas Beach
Bake n' Shark is a staple.
Try some hot 'Mother-in-Law,'
If you think your taste buds able.

Drive down Matelot
Keshon Walcott is from there,
And if the breeze is forceful
You'll smell spices in the air.

Buccoo Reef in Tobago
Is a must-see attraction.
Also, do an estate tour,
But, secure a reservation.

Enjoy our 'heritage food':
Cow, pig, chicken or conch souse.
Crab n' dumpling, callalloo will leave you
Looking like a house.

Store Bay is another popular spot!
T & T has a lot for you to treasure
But, our nation's greatest gem - The PEOPLE
Who are warm and friendly beyond measure.
