Nostalgia by isaiahogodo(m): 11:24am On Apr 14, 2015 |
I remember the days of lazy childhood Devoid of adult pressures and complexities When playing, sleeping and eating were The gods I worshiped. Those were the days of innocence When life was a naive picture Of friends, family and neigbours. Oh, those were the days I needn't worry About what to eat, wear and where to Sleep because mum and dad were in charge. But I wouldn't go back to those days Because now I know better than that Because a child's innocent world is A myopic vision of heaven on earth! Today, I am faced with the brutal fact that Life is wicked and that bad things happen To good people and life is not always Black and white and heaven on earth means Carrying my heavy cross in self-denial And following God in a lonely path. Playing, sleeping and eating come At a great price.Life isn't a one-way track To personal glory but a trudge uphill From Golgotha to Jerusalem! Yes, I remember those days Of innocent happy childhood! |
