No Gladness Poem by Odelana Rapheal

No gladness


I feel lost inside myself,
I'm Starting to realise that nothing has this world than lost...
A lot has happened lately,
And I can still smell worst of it towards the end...

No joy has he that know life is meaningless,
Not that Forest but taut success...
Let no saying be said I'm free..
For every time in life, main is chain...

Only celebrate it little and count your minutes in sorrow...
Just acquire small remember the journey is propertyless..
But smile everyday and let tears accompany your joy..

Difficulties and obstacles are the real agent of deity...
They change man from raw to rough in need...
Then, they sit on the success and request for your supplication.

My joy and gladness shall be that of tree,
Planted bedside the river for it to glow,
And when life makes use of it in different ways....
It dies and risen when it smells water....

If life flood me toward the east worst,
And ship me across the desert north wary,
My south shall flag doom and shines salvation....
