Is It True? Poem by G. Akanji Olaniyi

Is it true?
That after rain comes sunshine
That there is always a light after the dark
That the dawn comes just after the dusk
That the black head of the match strikes to bring fire
Yes, it is true!

Is it true?
That though there is evil, but there is God
That bad rewards for bad and good rewards for good
That there is hell for evil and heaven for good
That there are peoples for devil, but there are people for God
Yes, it is true!

Is it true?
That behind every successful man, there is a woman
That behind every lie, there is a truth lurking around
That behind every truth, there is a lie lurking around
That it is good to always be true
Yes, it is true!

Yes, it is true!
Yes, it is true! !
Yes, it is true! ! !

Time is true!
Time is truth! !
Truth is time! ! !
Time will be ripe! ! ! !
