Fable Preacher Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Fable preacher, with words so wise,
Spinning tales that mesmerize,
In his sermons, he weaves a spell,
With lessons hidden, they never tell.

Through parables and allegories
He tells us of life's glories,
Of cunning foxes and clever crows,
And wolves disguised in sheep's clothes,
He speaks of virtues and vices.

He gives warnings and advices
With a twinkle in his eye,
He makes us laugh, he makes us sigh,
His words stretch and bend
Like a rubber band, they never end.

Fable preacher,
With each story, a lesson to learn,
As his words and thoughts, they twist and turn,
He teaches us to be kind.

Fable preacher,
He teaches us to be kind.
To always keep an open mind,
To never judge a book by its cover,
For in every tale, there's a hidden lover.

Fable preacher,
He takes us on a journey
Through fields and forests, mountains and seas
With each fable, a new adventure,
A lesson in each, a hidden treasure.

Fable preacher, with his elastic words,
He spreads his message, like a flock of birds,
Touching hearts and minds, with his tales,
Leaving behind trails, like elusive snails.

So let us listen, with open ears,
And let his words wash away our fears,
For in each fable, there's a moral to see,
And in each story, a lesson to be free.
