Then, Now And The Future ( Nigeria ) ---- A Poem by FoxyUltimate(m): 1:38pm On Mar 25, 2013 |
Wait o why all this dey happen If you smile wahala dey for you If you cry nobody go pity you When you laugh na im worst pass Time no dey heal wounds again Na only to point out more injuries to us When Nigeria came we celebrated The would watched us elated Finally we are a nation to contend with Though we had nothing to show for it Our hope were lighted by our zeal Independence had come to us for real Greed for power broke us once From coup to war we bounced Even the dead had cases to answer Why visit God in such manner Dying when the nation remained young And the light of freedom still burned Tie a cord round about them Provide them different garments helm Show them the perceived way Let religious view be the master of the day The paupers will definitely fade away How and when will come that day Nigeria my beloveth nation Guarded with jealousy and passion Where art thou now on the map When the world came back from ITS nap Scattered and shredded in all corners Divided solely among newcomers We don pray for day and for night Make we love even though we fight Make religion no oppress us again Make sentiment no add to our pain We get hope this time for straw Na to go back board go draw |

Nice work. But don't you think you should focus more on finishing up the threads you abandoned. |

The same thing you say over and over again. Create time and finish those threads and stop giving flimsy excuses. |
