POETIC DELIGHTS BY ABBAH JUSTINA-NIGERIA

 ‎

1-Don't Worry About Them.

‎Don't worry about them

‎The same way they left,

‎The same way they

‎Will come back

‎

‎Don't worry about it

‎The same river that

‎Flow from your eyes

‎The same river will

‎Wash your pains and

‎Glow in your heart.

‎

‎Don't worry about

‎The passing hours

‎The same time that

‎Fades away, will be

‎Amiably renewed

‎

‎Don't worry about those

‎that laughed at you,

‎The same mouths

‎That mock you ,

‎Those same mouths

‎Will celebrate you.

‎

‎So do not worry,

‎Those situations

‎That hit you

‎Can still turn back

‎And bless you.

‎Do not worry my friend.

‎Hakuna Matata !!!

2-‎STOP BENUE KILLING

‎Benue: A Plea for Peace

‎BENUE! once serene and free

‎Echoes of  violence and sorrow

‎Is what we now see

‎The invaders emerge like shadows

‎Killing both young and old like cows

‎Fields once lush with harvests

‎now stained with grief and tears.

‎

‎Oh, land of the verdant river,

‎This tragedy, a game of political rival

‎ Who don't care whether lives are lost unjustly

‎Because their thrones are made from

‎This very blood shards and dry bones

‎So just like Pharaoh they seat on their thrones , watch and see

‎As the river turn into the red sea.

‎

‎When voices raise and cry for help

‎They try to silent them, saying you speak against their reign

‎But the true throne of mercy shall rain.

‎Stop the Benue killing now

‎Let compassion be our song, 

‎For Benue, for Nigeria, where we all belong.

‎

‎3-The Israeli-Palestinian Madness

‎Why not do something different?

‎Instead of this same old story of war?

‎A tale of sorrow, you always tell

‎Countries where peace never dwell

‎Remember, hate never cures hate

‎Only the divine flame of love do

‎Darkness never get rid of darkness

‎Only the radiance of  light can do that

‎
