Desire Obaroyeregbe Agbeyiwa Agidotan Ikoyo Poet Epic

LESSON FROM MY FATHER TO ME

The lesson from a father to his son
Are blessings in disguise 
For they are guidelines to success 
And longevity;
My father taught me many things 
He taught me to be firm
While going after what I want
Taught me how to say no without guilt.

My father taught me
How to stay strong and patient 
When things don't go my way
According to my plans
I should let go of things 
That is out of my control 
Teaching me detachment.

My father taught me 
To be humble and consistent 
When things start going my way
According to my plans 
Because discipline and humility 
Maintains success.

My father taught me 
How to treat everyone 
I cross paths with  
Because variety is the spice of life 
Disparaging another only
Feeds the ego instead of essence 
He taught me so many things 
I can't mention here
When words are too much it becomes void.
