In pretence they came <br />They promised to pay your ransom <br />They lured you to their tent <br />With their mouth full of bitter honey <br />They are lion in the heart <br />In physique they are sheep <br />On getting to their tent <br />They turned you to a canivore <br />And unto them, you are like a long time sore <br />O men! Are you not created by one father? <br />Are you not moulded with the same dust? <br />Why then have you turned your blood to a stinking sore? <br />Check your fingers <br />Are they in the same arithmetical order? <br />Have you not been favoured by your heavenly father? <br />Why then are you living like you are the source of your good fortune? <br />O men! Remember, your father gave you one soul <br />But in different figures <br />You are like coke and fanta <br />Different in colour taste and name <br />But from the same company they are produced <br />Therefore, you have been joined by your heavenly father <br />With one soul <br />But you are different in figures <br />Prepare yourself for the day <br />That your heavenly father <br />Will ask you how you show <br />Your love to your fellow men <br />While on earth.<br /><br />Gbolagade Taiwo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-soul-in-different-figures/
