FOOD FOR THOUGHT

  • A LEARNER?
    Fools shoot at the sky
    They never see blood fall
    Let alone gain revenge
    On the gravity of nature’s form

    Tones of questions erupts my heart
    Left deferred are answers to them
    The reality of man’s being
    Hinges on a force beyond his powers

    Umpteen times have I heard
    That lions never eat grass
    Neither do flowers bloom
    Without the relief of the dew

    What clones blood to make a being?
    What wakes us from night’s rest?
    What grows plants after we’ve sowed?
    What clears bowels after visiting the loo?

    Ask the earth what keeps it there
    Ask the birds what gives them food
    Ask the land as old as it is
    It never dies, neither grows old

    How do you tell
    Where the sun hides at night?
    How do you tell
    Where the rain has its closet?

    He’s a learner
    Who says there’s no God
    Indeed, fools shoot at the sky
    Oblivious of the hand that holds all things.
    EMERITUS

FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK

FYou are welcome to another edition of our weekly publication. 

This week, we have so many interesting packages on our desk, I bet you’ll never have any dull moment here.

We have fantastic article, poems, news on politics, sports, fashion, entertainment, health and gist.

Our FYB personality of the week is Miss Adesewa, Part 4 Management and Accounting. I’m sure you would love to know about her.

Though our leaders will always desire to blow our minds with their undulating policies on currency transformation (change of polymer notes to paper notes), yet we must continue to live in good faith of a competitive economy. For further details and others, do well visit the news column.

Our opinion poll for the week: Ferguson’s retirement and the appointment of Everton’s coach David Moyes and Chelsea VS Benfica UEFA cup final clash may be of interst to you. You can help by stating your opinion in the Sport column.

Till we come your way next week. Do have a refreshing and stress-free week.
