No Pain, No Gain Poem by Balogun Segun Gbenga

Adventurer I call myself

Trying to garner some nerve

I knock at fortune door

Behold! There is a law

Though inquisitive I am

But could not get the understanding by palm

My enquiry continues in the dark

Until daylight still held in the stack

Answer to the question I probe

Even in my white linen and robe

The earth revolves around the sun

this restlessness it made its fun

Different seasons emerge, diverse weather surface

Tilting as it rotates,

Day and night it provocates

Yes, dry and wet never leave its crest

That's why Life never abhor her nest

Go to the North, South, East or West

the message Nature is passing to the rest

No pain, no gain
