All That Glitters Ain't Gold Poem by Qiniso Mogale

All that glitters ain't gold
All is not what it seems
Many promises are false
Many people are foxes in sheep skin
Greener pastures may not be green at all
Demons appear as God's angels.

All that glitters ain't gold
All is not what it seems
Happy marriages may actually be nightmares
Best friends may actually be worst enemies
Blood brothers and sisters may be at loggerheads
Therefore happy families may be sad families.

All that glitters ain't gold
All is not what it seems
Silence is not peace
Many are imploding from within
Many are silently angry
Many are silently screaming
It's a ticking time bomb.

All that glitters ain't gold
Things are not what they seem
Mothers are in marriages only for their children
Fathers may also be staying for their children
All is not well even in governments
Leaders are not seeing eye to eye
The world is in turmoil
The world is in disarray.
