The Child Poem by Prince Adedeji S. Ologbenla

The Child



The disease I despise
In the heat of the day and the chill of the night
Flows freely rampaging our little hope
Macheting men's soul every moment
Corrupting the innocent with filth
The disease I despise
Not yet a plague
As the children still comes uncorrupted to this world

So I pick up a baby
To whisper the word of the worlds into his eager ears
His love senses I ignite towards doing good
And his hate senses towards evil
To make one that will stand against the ills of the society
The words I spoke into his ears
Were unto him a vaccine
Against the plagues that is destroying our nation
Now he matches on as a war General
Against the evil that has one time dominated
The heart of men

To change the world start from the class
