YOU WERE A LESSON

You were a lesson

Well learnt

And that past has become a blessing

Well grabbed

The trouble

Which always used to bubble,

The tears which caused massive erosion

On my face tampering with my emotion,

The pain which at the grounds of my heart stomped

As my heart pumped

Have become appreciative tools

Making me appreciate efforts of my past fools

So I

Cherish

Every

Moment

I’m treated special

So I see you

In every demon

Covered by foamy diamond

To raid my happiness

Younger years

Have been shed for the elderly me

Nothing shiny will shake my ground.

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. :)

This is excellent–my life became more rich when I could look for the gold of lessons learned in hard experiences. Prior to gaining wisdom, I was so very bitter–wasting away the blessing of each day received.
