POEM:The Life Is Yours

Life they say is full of ups and down

When you are down you wear a frown

It becomes an outfit people see on you

You want to change cloth but life won't let you

You were given nine months to prepare

Days upon days you were growing and kicking

The anticipation of your arrival was very high

It started from that moment when she said yes

Before Aso ebi became part of the arrangement

After his father and her mother gave their blessing

Before she was given the semens

Which disrupted the monthly bleeding

Before you became a show they couldn’t see yet couldn't hide

Their vision of you wasn't small it was wide

Joy was all you brought them

You first cry was the beginning of their laughter

Confusion particularly became your matter

As you grew expectations became higher

Nobody writes you any manuscript

Yet they say life is a movie

Practicing makes you perfect but life ain't a rehearsal

No chance to retake a lost step

it is forward ever backward never

Lessons are all you can learn but life ain't all about school

So you begin to ask yourself

How do I stay head high?

How do I leave the ground and fly?

With every experiences you begin to make your rule

Because you have realize that life is what you want it to be

Truly it is not a bed of roses

Yet it can be a ground full of grasses

Where patience dog would eat the fattest bone

But the fastest dog would have tasted it first

It important you hold on to life

You have one shot at it

It can kill you and it can also make you

The choice is yours the life is yours
