WILTERS

Flowers wilt

Plants wilt

Weeds wilt

So do you

You step on it;

The earth

You spit on it;

The earth

You ease into it;

The earth

You’ll also end up in it;

The earth

So like a treasured mattress,

Step on the earth

With respect,

Spit on the earth

With apologies,

Ease into the earth

You are a fragment,

Just a fragment of the earth

Being nursed.

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
