The 24hrs Of Life Poem by Obute Gabriel

Stanza 1
The writer described when a child is born into this world, he/she cries and the parents pamper and show care with everything just to make the baby happy

Stanza 2
The baby has grown, can speak, run and could do everything while the parents still provide his entire basic requirement and others.

Stanza 3
It describe the early stages when the child becomes an adult where the parents allows the child to start solving problem on his own and those enticement begins to fade away

Stanza 4
It described the later stage of the child adult life, when the child begins to struggle hard for his future i.e when he starts working to make things for himself (i.e providing his basic amenities)

Stanza 5
The child has to pause and think, oh! The journey of life is not easy, even with all the struggling; um… I must get a company to keep me happy, assist and encourage me even when I’m weak or strong

Stanza 6
It describe the final the stage of the child’s life, when he has grown old, he sits and look at life in general and all he has fought for, oh! There is nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing, I can take out of life, so I just have to go back the way I came leaving this world of ours

I was inspired, the way and manner many children are been born into these world (i.e some without a silver spoon, while others with silver spoon) . But regardless of that everyone has the same 24hrs of life

I dedicate this poem to God, the author of inspiration, my lovely mother and everyone around me.

I wrote this poem at home with a thought of how life begins and how it’s going to end.
