A Child Pray Poem by EZEKIEL HARUNA DANBAKI

A Child Pray



Mother Earth and father time
Give ear to your son's rhyme
Let this prayer get me through
Let my wishes turn true
When dreams are lost in streams
Let this plea greet in screams
Oh! Let me act with aim
Let me be like them
Like heroes and makers of histories
Like giants and doers of mysteries
Words to them-i share my emotion
Words to them-my absolute devotion
Words to Paul words to Silas
Words to peter words to Barnabbas
Words to Daniel words to the three
Heroes in jail heroes when free
Words to Moses words to Elijah
Words to Joshua words to Elisha
Mighty names knit into sheets
To wrap my head my heart my feet
words to the saint brothers
Words to many others
Just like them i want to be
Just like them i want to be.
