PARABLE OF THE SUN

Stress in silly sprinkles...
the making of wild wrinkles.
A smile as a mere mask;
the heat within a beautiful flask.

Behind a gorgeous face,
lies a comfort starved of grace.
An attractive appearance...
deceit with a diligent dance.

People are passing through a lot...
the boiling bubbles of a cooking pot.
What you see is not what is real...
the sight of a spicy and salty meal.

Show love to everyone you meet.
Without them, life is incomplete.
Let out a helping hand...
with you, they may regain their stand.

Each day is pregnant with pains.
A show of love can never be in vain.
The parable of a shining day...
the more it glows, the more it decay.

Lanre Badmus.
