BE MY ROPE

ROPE

Hunchback television

Paved way for the flats

All inspired by Edison’s light

Harvested food’s love with famine

Gave reason for the canned and tinned

All inspired by the need to eat and survive

Brown leaves fall

In wait of the greens

All inspired by the tree’s need to flourish

At a time you’ll need a rope

To climb life’s hurdle and reach the bank

So must you be the rope in time to help the needy reach his goal

Even though some may fall

And the sharp legs may make you tear

Know there many who’ll make it worthwhile

Here, be my rope

And prepare me as a good rope

To transport others to their needed destination.

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. :)
