Atioro Poem by Babatunde Aremu

Atioro

Rating: 5.0


Atioro, ever busy bird
Stop flying a little
Rest a while
Your flight is good
But a little is good
Remember, a bird killed
Because of a small seed
Many of her species
Will perch on other seeds
A little rest re-invigorates
So, take it easy
Take a leisure
Atioro, the dutiful bird.

Simply saying that man should be contented with what he has rather than go extra miles to attain what he cannot have. Hmmm... Oro agba
