Avoid It, Endure It

AVOID IT, ENDURE IT When problems shower, Plethora of troubles Having a time of their life In your community-body, Avoid them with Your protective parts. For the scorch rays And the play from flying birds, Use your sun roof To cover your head. For flying insects, The play from monkeys around And the dirty wind blowing around, Close the boot of your eyes To protect it from blinds. For the thunder Who boasts of his voice And the play of tongues Mingling with abusive words, Close the window of your ear To protect your ear drum. With all these Accumulated grievances And your heart Heavy with accumulated weights, Let no word proceed Out of your mouth, But lock the bonnet Of your mouth And give God the key. 30 Lines 5 Stanzas Date Written: 11-Aug-2011 Author; KESSIE JUSTICE AMENYO
