I Am Word

I am word
Baked with joy and peace,
Walking around the mind of people
To give love, wisdom and understanding;
I don't mind if you love or hate me.



I am what people seek in Abeokuta,
Border connecting the actions of people,
I am the breathe that people dream of daily;
Never mind if I hurt or please you to core.
I change the course of many in right directions.



I am love in the enclosure of your mouth,
I am you that remember the existence of you,
Listen carefully for the gown in armless style
I make them swing and swell with the breeze.



I am what people seek in the North,
I am the elephants of the south, whose
Righteousness could make you but
My holy body could ruin your imperfection.



I am word
That is pregnant with a child on,
A written destiny.
My birth is the revelation of old which
My legs only seek the diligent and approver of the spring of life from the mouth of my words. 



I am word
That sparkles like the thunder,
I am not darkness of the horrible night;
I am the tomorrow that many seek to behold.
I am the lion that roars in the thick forest,
I am the food that quench the taste of your eyes.



I am word
Seated in your heart for transformation,
When I speak, people listen to learn.
I unlock the ignorance of people to wisdom,
When in the art of dance, I paint many with my eyes.


I am word
I draw immovable lines in the mind of people,
I cut many edges of evil thoughts effortlessly.
I am uttered in penned lines never to die,
I live from ages to ages recreating lost destinies.
