Written
by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
You
are not a failure
You
are not a loser
You
are not down and out
You
did not even fall
You
only took on a new course
Walked
in a new direction
A
direction that had always been there
Latent,
with occasional walks
Not
long enough to explore the full
And
optimal dimensions of this course
Short
walks, actually forays
That
could have proceeded
To
real life long journeys on this course
But
were aborted by voices
Some
faint, some loud, some unclear
Some
distinct
Voices
that steered you in diverse directions
Seeking
for gold, without purpose
And
ultimately not finding real gold
You
took the turn, followed that
Age
long course
You
had always known
Would
lead you to gold
Diamonds,
Sapphires, Rubies,
And
all you ever wanted in life
Shalom
