Democracy Poem by SEGUN RASAKI

Democracy



Democracy is a special gift from God to humanity. It is what makes the political platform a level ground for all to play.
Democracy is the mother of all institutions that define in unambiguous terms what decent societies should be.
Democracy is gentle but fragile, lover of peace, equally strong and powerful.
Democracy defines Nations and Nations that respect it are defined by it.
When democracy is attacked, assaulted and brutalized, the consequences are grave. Anarchy comes to market to take center stage when democracy is attacked.

Those who practice democracy are called Democrats and for these practitioners there is no partial belonging; absolute loyalty is expected. Democracy behoves on Democrats to respect the will of the people even when such will is uncomfortable and contrary to theirs.
Democracy guarantees development and demands faithfulness to the rules of law.
Democracy is light to the feet of humble, peace loving and good-spirited individuals.
America is the beacon of light to the world of Democrats, please do not descend into the abyss of lawlessness as lawlessness brings hopelessness.
I cry on the dark Wednesday when democracy was assaulted to placate single individual and bring shame to democracy.
Democracy shall triumph and good will surely Trump evil.
I hope this will be a nightmare by the time I wake up to a new day tomorrow.
America shall rise again because of the resilience of the people. Democracy is tougher than the toughest of any of us.
God bless this union, the hope of the world.
