The Wise House Poem by Olugbenga Ayoola.O

The Wise House

Rating: 3.9


WISE HOUSE
I stood in the middle of the poetry,
We move forward to the wise house
Where all soul of the bard laid heads
Under the precious stone of the wisdom
Where million of head obtain knowledge
And their pen is mightier than sword
Their paper is stronger than stone
Under the feet of the creatures
A place where winds of knowledge blow
And the light of wisdom shines
I shall put my pen on the stone of nations
O my paper shall white than snow

I stood in the middle of the poetry, We move forward to the wise house Where all soul of the bard laid heads Under the precious stone of the wisdom Where million of head obtain knowledge And their pen is mightier than sword Their paper is stronger than stone Under the feet of the creatures A place where winds of knowledge blow And the light of wisdom shines I shall put my pen on the stone of nations O my paper shall white than snow Mr Ayoola.... I have read this poem. And I think I got the message therein. YOu write poetry, I must say. The flow, the picture it paints, are all clear. However, I think a few things are rather unclear to me. From the first line, do you mean I stood in the middle of the POEM? See my reworked version below. I stood in the middle of the poem as we moved to the house of wisdom where the souls of the bards laid their heads under the precious stone of wisdom where a million heads obtain wisdom whose pens are mightier than the sword whose papers are stronger than stone......... at this point i am not very clear about the rest. May be I'll read it again some other time and then reach you again. Uchenna Franklin
