Poems For Review › I Was Baptize... by joseph1832(op): 8:30am On Jan 24, 2016*

I was baptize with your sweet love
It falls like rain from the sky above
Showering me with warmth and care
Whispering secrets we both share
Say' its sweet I shouldn't disapprove

Its intent, and shouldn't remove-
Its content, 'wear it like a glove,
Let it 'brace me, so it can flare...
I was baptize...

Time and space can not hold your love,
'Cause its pure like the dove above,
Which flies and glows pu'ty that flare,
So much happiness it is rare,
To see a love so pure it prove,
I was baptize.

A Needless post that did nothing to counter the quoted post. My message was very clear and succinct . . . . . The fools in Aso Rock led by the daura dunce should know better than tow this petty stance . . . . .

They simply gave Deji more ranking in his social media crusade . . . . . .

Its no fault of mine if you can't think or reason. Cos if you can, you'd have understood what I said.

I believe this set of fools in Aso Rock are actually better than those set of fools who occupied Asshole Rock.

Tell me, who do you think is a fool: the fool or the person following the fool?

Corruption is not just stealing money .... There are rules that dictates the use of power, and PMB swore by the koran to uphold the constitution.

Gagging the opposition because they are opposition is wrong.

Let the court examine the evidence and give their verdict accordingly...he is presumed innocent till found guilty.

Why restrict access to him by order from the top?

Just how do you know PMB was the one who said this Deji of a guy shouldn't see Metuh?

Did you bother to ask if this said individual went during visiting hours? Or if he went as a V.I.P demanding to see Metuh?

What proof does he have that the presidency gave such order? I mean, I won't be surprise if some overzealous prison officer denies him access to Metuh all in the name of scoring some cheap points.

Tolexander:
when GEJ was given international awards, they all attributed the recognitions to GEJ's credibility.

His compatriot, CRA, is now offered an international appointment, then the credibility of the criteria for international appointment becomes a subject of theoretical finding and laboratory work.

Nigerians and double standard!

You'll be amazed what Nigerians can do or say when they like you and when they don't like you.

Madam stop putting the link to your blog on articles you didn't write or contribute to in anyway.

It seem you now have a penchant for taking credit for things which you didn't work for, all in the name of generating traffic for your blog.
