TOLU'S DIARY

TUESDAYS 10AM

Hey diary,

It’s been a while I serve you my juice in a tumbler of poetry. Here is my expression of the thoughts on ‘life’. It goes thus:

I fell in love with life

I never knew it wasn’t devoid of strife

I’d pampered it as a newly wedded wife

Roses in thorns; huh! It was a strive

Raindrops from the eyes

Bruises on feet yet on hike

Wondered if the Viking would survive the ice

Hmm! It became tough as skin and hide

A new approach to resist reproach

Hired archers because life I need to poach

Yet it’s tough as a journey on a ramshackle coach

I heard ‘’the battle is not mine, it belongs to my coach’’.

See you again next week. Kindly let me know your thoughts about life readers. Hugs and kisses.
