You are the soil
the farmer cannot do without
like an arrow
in the hand of an archer
you determine the fate,
the future of a nation,
of families.
You are an inheritance
you are the future
a name dies without you
you are the name
a child is what you are
hmmmm….alluring…this readily passes for a lullaby…really wish naija's children can connect to the poet's vision… nice lines, fissy!
