Let us go and sow the seed

This morning

You wake to chase after wealth

Lodged in your dreams

Yet your song, washed clean

Like words of saints

Bears no lyrics

Of new parameters.



What do i hear?

A mere voice of an infant

Crying for a luscious-looking lollipop!



He dines and wines with his ilk

On the high crest of the wave

Hence they grow bellies

That crawl beyond their thighs.....



You`re a youthful dotcom

Adorning crowns of your godfather

Forlornly the world around you

Would watch as the old stream

Efferfece in warm chemistry



If you need me, son

Let me count the hair on your crown

Let me feel the grain of your palm

Then, take my hand

And let us make friends

Under the shade of the rainbow



We were not born into eternal want

Together, let us go and sow the seed

With enduring toil let us reap the harvest

From our virgin land, storing yearly

Abudant grains of sweat.

"We were not born into eternal want
Together, let us go and sow the seed"
