He use to say God is committed to your success than you are
That God will do what he said he will do for you for His name sake
Dr. Myles Munroe had a great sense of humour with a special laughter

tracing the circumference of a world that breaks,
that slips, that flees? Is it the way we sing an elegy
for infants caught in the fire, the way we remember
Nigeria, Iraq, Syria?

Happy Independence Day to Nigeria! Source: www.shuttershock.com
The Super Eagle of the skies
with wings clipped like an emu
and can barely fly
when expected to soar,
the span of these wings are wide
and these sunken eyes is only for a Mother Eagle
The land of milk and honey
where dairy owners starve to death
and landlords are milked by tenants,
until the lips of their pockets got glued
and could no longer swallow a drop of honey
produced by swarms of bees in their own hives.
There was a Nigeria,
known as a nation of enviable jewels
where all birds wanted to build their nests
and all beasts wanted to graze her pasture,
where peace and justice were citizens
and not sons lost in exile
dining with only those who live in foreign lands.
P.S.: This is for a sober reflection as the most populous black nation in the world, Nigeria celebrates 55 years of Independence.
