What We Thought! ! ! Poem by G. Akanji Olaniyi

We thought life was too harsh on us
But it was merely teaching us the required lessons
We thought people were making jest and laughing at us
But we found out that they were only rehearsing a reversal
We thought it was already too late
But we were told that 'it is better late than never'
We thought that time was running out
But we got to know that 'God's time is the best'
We thought they had all gone and left us behind
But we found out that no one can ever run faster than him/herself
We thought we would never make it
But By HIS Grace, we will climb the heights!
