Tales Of A Moon Poem by Asaolu Abayomi

Dragging to crawl
Crawling to walk
Walking to run
Running to fall
Falling to rise
Yet I'm not risen

I learnt all myself
Myself I crawled
Myself I walked
Myself I ran
Myself I fell
Myself I couldn't rise

If I could crawl
If I could walk
If I could run
If I could fall
Why can't I rise too?

A moon I think
Among stars alone I stand
Intimidated by the crowded stars
Ashamed of my nature

Nature is in them
Scattered all over
Nature is in me
One of me is allover
This discovery I discovered
But yet I could run
Fell off the mark
Why can't I rise?
