Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Success Is Not a Citizen of Any Nation

Success is not a citizen of any nation 
First is you,
Before another,
If you understand,
They say heaven help those,
Who help them selves,
You are a special person of your kind,
Their is no another like you,
No people is made more successful,
Than the other in life,


First is progress,
After is success,
First is you,
In between is you,

You have to first progress,
To be successful,
Nation, contries,
Tribes, languages,
Race, and so on,
Don't count to be successful,
The ability to progress 
And succeed is in you,



Success is not a citizen of any nation,
You alone can drive the boat of creativity,
On the sea of change at the best of your
Knowledge,
The truth is,
The success you long for is in you,
Is not any where else,
But only in you,

Success is not a citizen of any nation,
No matter who you are,
Everyone have a success in them,
Every human has a success in themselves,
Success is not in places
When you progress,
You take success to places,
Cos! You are success,
In Africa we say,
Success is not a citizen of any nation.
