Life is like the laws of the Medes and the Persians, <br />But i am not your mother! ! <br />Darius of the Medes and Cyrius of the Persians, <br />I am thrown into the lion's den of love; <br />And until the ancient of days come, <br />I will lead on to inspire you. <br /> <br />I am not your mother but, <br />The care taker of the River Ulai; <br />And i am in the province of Elam to help you grow, <br />And like the laws of the Medes and the Persians. <br /> <br />Over the river of love i stood and watched, <br />And sleep fled from my eyes like a thief! ! <br />For, i saw pllows on the wrists of men.<br /><br />Edward Kofi Louis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-am-not-your-mother/
