POETRY

GEONONSENSE

A hen strays to the bush
A guinea fowl gives it a push
…to get out of its terrain

Ib
A sheep wanders to the forest
An antelope causes its arrest
…citing dares broken in bounds

Ic
A duck flies the sky
An eagle swoops so low to peck it dry
Claiming it stranger

Id
An alligator visits a river
A crocodile makes it shiver
Calling it an intruder

II
But habitats are interdependent siblings
Some guinea fowls live like hens
Some antelopes visit some homes
Eagles sometimes feed on land
Just as crocodiles travel the land

III
Should earth up one day to eject all
Who can order its calm?
It is oddly amazing how earth serves a transit
…but the living carries ownership like a prized burden
Mortality is a fearful reality

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. :)
