Fashioned In Heaven,Realized On Earth

Two love birds collide Different world Different cities Different colour A tale of two cities Like a cinderella story... The groom chocolatey The bride lights up What an attraction Between Unlike poles... When the chocolate enters The bride lights up his world He said he loved her He pursued determinedly He was focused and patient.... And he got his "Prize"... As the day drew nigh... For the walk on the aisle Everyone in high spirits... Preparations all the way.. To make it a day Dat lasts long in the memory Trumpets blowing.. Drums banging Dancers strutting their stuff Standstill...the order of the day All nooks and crannies filled For just two people Destined to be *father and mother* Of many nations* Union that has been God- ordained To transform and mould lives With Jesus at the Epicentre.. The rivers of excitement flows through my bloodstream Now its a month of God-fulfilled promise Tick tock says the clock.... A month in no time Will lead to a year And to a decade.... Double decades... and many more If Jesus tarries.... God will *jinki* you with seeds That will continue your vision... And your parental roles fulfilled You shall not lax in your responsibilities To yourselves.... And seeds.... You are an eagle Destined to soar... You shall shine... Brighter than the sun You shall walk with God Like never before *jinki* yoruba word for enrich... (An indigenous language in nigeria)
