Nigeria;the Tale Of A Dead Glory by kifeyous(m): 7:55am On Jun 15, 2017 |
A collaborative effort of art and poetry TITLE: Nigeria;The Tale of a Dead Glory We were known to be Giants But now being trodden upon like Ants Its the fruit from our plants Each other's wishes we can not grant among us no confidant Instead of cooperation, we criticize, we rant That's why we suffer Criticism has nothing good to offer Freedom of speech!! Yea, liberty And we still remain in poverty.. Why cant we make use our tongue properly To save our life and property. We ' re awake nd down on our knees with tears We look unto u to intervene in our affairs Our country, we need you to repair We knw you' re faithful and for us you care Help us to bear all our burdens and fears When things seem scary like nightmare help us to put on courage like nightwear The good of our land we want to share Hear us nd answer our prayers Provide for us our daily bread We your children have to be fed So that yr glorious work can be spread Take us back to being the head And show us the part to tread Put an end to bloodshed Be our guide Stay by our side As we take our problems in our stride Forever in you we want to abide And in you also to confide We believe you wil always provide...... Write up by PATIENCE VINCENT.... Art by ME.... # artssasin # iammad # iamatalent # word # Nigeria # owner_turned_beggar 1 Like
