RUSTING GOLD






******************************************

Often thinks about their youthful days
Each time I set my eyes on them
That moment when they were in their prime
When they were the cynosure of all eyes
But now metamorphosis is at it again
Old age knocked at the door of beauty,
Both locked horns but aging claimed the victory.

That youthful beauty has faded.
That voluptuous, sagging mammary glands, bow.
Wrinkled were the initially smooth and fresh faces
This left me in the ocean of confusion
At last came out with a conclusion, ‘Beauty is a fading Entity.’

Fresh chicks consider your grannies
Perhaps you have none
Take a careful look at your mother.
Was once the most sought after in the city.
Was once the subject of discussion among her males’ peer?

Where are the beauties of old?
Fresh-faces be mindful of beauty, it fade.
Once upon a time cherished beauty can later be spit upon

However, I’ve always asked will I ever marry?
‘Cos I’m looking for a woman
Whose beauty will claim victory over old age.
The woman that will forever be young
And her charm forever be strong.
As per strength forever be strong

Will I ever get such among humanity?
Guess, I have to search till eternity.
If at all I can get such a special entity.

I am Odunayo Samuel AKERELE.

Remember, keep being you and keep being good.

IT MATTER

IT MATTER! The topic to be discussed today is ‘it matter’, but the question is, what matters? Join me as we look into this deeply.  When I was in secondary school my Agricultural science teacher taught us then GERMINATION and the factor responsible for growth. Some of the factors are: viable seeds, moisture or water, nutrient (soil) and air (oxygen) When I meditatively considered these factors I realized that not even one out of them is un-important. If any of them isn’t available then the seed growth or germination is in jeopardy. Applying this into our lives’ journey as humans, it is evident that some factors also responsible for our own growth in every endeavors of life. Some take this serious while some others don’t.  When I say growth I do not mean increase in the number of age. Neither do I mean increase in stature. We grow in business, career, and ministry and so on. For us to grow in life we need to take these factors seriously. For instance the viabil...

I PROPOSED A DECEIT

I was born when the time was still partially measured by the throaty crow of the cocks. When if cock refuses to crow, the time was measured by the height of shadow.  I can still very much remember how my father would say the time is three o'clock in the afternoon because the shadow had reached a certain height on the wall in our backyard. Sometimes I was wowed at the level of his intelligence.  He didn't mark that particular spot on the wall and he never for once missed it. I tried doing but kept on missing it. Then, I used charcoal to Mark it. Isn't beautiful to say I also measured time by the height of shadow? Winks.  My father was a farmer and partially a hunter. He was very diligent and good at what he does. He had cocoa, cola nut, plantain, yam, maize, cowpea, and rice farms. He was rich in goats, and different kinds of fowls. Apart from the fact that he uses labor we the children were also part of the labors employ on his farm.  We worked all ye...

THE MYTH OF AN AFRICA AKEE: NUTRITIOUS BUT POISONOUS

Dear friends You have mountains to climb  You have missions to accomplish Shining brighter is your bulb Don't give your strength to that which perish Never fall for alluring hips You have land and nation to conquer Waste not your time conquering hips As a result, many lives have been shattered Your friends might have told you it's love Maybe not the one from above What you desire is that which you have seen The contour, the butt, curves, and the breasts  Love that robs you of value Hear this my humble truth This is lust after her many assets I can see that big butts, breasts et al are all set Before you climb this mountain Why not ask if the time is riped Because it's like an African akee Nutritious but poisonous if it's not *Footnote  The right timing is very important whatever we are doing. Before you take any action be patient enough  ask yourself if the timing is right or not. ©OdunayoSam.
