Life

Hi friends,
Its another new day and I am led to share a poem with you. I trust that through this poem culled from 'Capsules for your Wholeness' by Janet Oluwadamisi, You shall begin to embrace life in a new dimension.

Life is so incomparable,
So sweet that anything can be done to taste,
Sow precious  that every sow can be spent to keep it,
So beautiful that it cannot be compared to diamonds,
So appealing that every breath brings a relief,
So expensive that each of man's labour is to satisfy.

Oh, Life!
So much has been said,
So much has been written,
So much has been done to differenciate
So much has been painted to beautify.
So much has been done to recreate.

Oh, life!
What a mystery you have been to the wisest of men,
What glory to the lowliest of men!
What shame to the most ignorant of men,
What a challenge to the weakest of men,
What a fulfillment to the godliest of men,
What then are you , Oh, Life?

Life is like a vapour that vanishes away,
Life is like a flower that fades,
Life is like a shadow that passes away,
life is like a grass that withers,
Life is like a school that imparts knowledge
Life is like a market that soon closes,
Life is like a journey that must end!

Lord teach us to number the days of our lives.
That we may fulfill the purpose of our existence!
That we may use our lives as jewels,
To magnify your everlasting Glory!
