Poem: Watch and Pray by UmehWrites

When Solomon said there’s a time for everything,

He was in spirit because he knew exactly what he was saying.

He who plants in harmattan,

Must be ready to eat stone as Iftar in Ramadan.

That is why we need to watch and pray,

So we don’t go from being a Predator to being a Prey.

So you don’t move faster than your shadow,

or stall like a SNAIL in the monkeys shadow.

So you don’t try to conquer and live in Mars,

When millions are dying and leaving earth in Mass.

Eme ngwa ngwa emeghari odachi,

Mana ogbuoge nwere plans maka echi.

So watch and pray,

Because there’s a time for everything to play.
