Wisdom Poem by segun Johnson Ozique

Wisdom



If by some grace someday we all realise
With an inner light, strength and sight
That this flesh and bones we so worship
Is only like a workman’s tool, a vehicle
Fixed to bear its responsibility as the equinity
To help live our lives out as published in destiny

Then only, perhaps, can we be assured, an onward march
In sincerity to the place christen heaven, contented:
But mark that this;
Can only be the path to those in simple life of meekness;
Opened to an inner light of common sense enlightenment

But to them who in all pervading nous of self-esteem
Choose to hold to earth, the earthly and flesh, above all
The peace, scene and sense of the rapture will remain...secrecy.
