Poem.jpgHello Everyone,

It's your brother here again.

WHEN THE LAND CRIES! By Nucleus

I'm a land

with all the best a land can have

I'm a great mother with millions of children

I use to be happy

until my husband sold me to a stranger for a peanut

I couldn't watch after my children anymore

my husband turned me to a tree of sorrow

he made me curse the sun for shining upon me

he made me regret observing the moon

my wicked husband sold my sons to slavery

my wicked husband explored me without value

my wicked husband made me watch my kids suffer

I'm now use to crying while above fifty

now my grandchildren are grown

who will empower them?

who will feed them?

who will fight for them?

and my wicked husband refuse to die

but who is my wicked husband?

do i know him?

yes i do, my wicked husband is called bad governance by my people

now who can fight my wicked husband?

who will fight my wicked husband?

who will save my grandchildren's future?

who will save me?

I am Nigeria!

Thanks readers!

We have to fight for ourselves, the youths, the upcoming leaders

Who are the upcoming leaders? when will they get there?

Nice piece

Great poem @tezzmax.

Thanks boss

Your post is an eye opener. Bad governance is everywhere and it is a sad reality why third world countries stay the same decade after decade.

Yes ma'am, but still don't see her future bright. I mean the third world.
