Walk The Path
Ibrahim Dende Papa 1996 (Lagos)
Walk the path and hew/the rules for nothing is new
Walk as a panacea and embrace/genuineness,crave hard for grace
Walk with a positive mind/b perceptive, safe and kind
Walk in disguise with wisdom/decode, let not the heart gets freedom
Walk a standard level/high above enmity and evil
Walk as blessing, then heal first/extend to all, and be free from thirst
Walk excursionaly to relearn/gain newly by learning and unlearn
Walk; and If flubbed, leave no traces/so, generation after can tread good legacies
Walk with minds full of wit/ perspicacity optimistically fit
About this poem
I write the poem late one night, or should I say early hours of the morning,in my personal "communication room" concentrating and so desired which draw upon a source of superior intelligence, available to me through my creative imagination and ideas which come to me from within. The first line emerged from the darkness 'Walk the path and hew'... you will find in it a magic of self-direction, an amazingly revealing of a true path of success
