ROSE

I am the garden of happiness

The place where love began

The garden where emotions is heard

The shelter of cupid

Hibiscus is my sister

Just like sunflower is my brother

My color is the definition of love

Am more lovely under the dew than the sun even when it makes me soft

When I left my mother

I still remain their order

I mend broken hearts

Many who know my value cherish me

The human emotions adore me

Just the way I put smile on their faces

Some say am fragile, soft and tender

But am handled with care

Am the first among all selection,

I am a flower

I am ROSE.

DEICATED TO MY MUM

MRS. ROSE OMATSEYE

WHO AM I?

I was born May 5^th 1947

Am one in a million

My family is ten in number

I have four handsome boys

And seven awesome children

Grace was a gift from God

That made Rose filled my life

Thou I made two choice

They remain one

Cos am the decider

My first was Endurance

I had a lot of dreams

By faith

They became mine

My name will never lost

Cos I never left my family

But God knows what’s on my mind

The beginning was rough,

Just like the middle was tough

But we laughed at the end

Even though I didn’t see the end.
