Bed of stone

Bed of stone 

Sadness is reclining on a couch 

Together with an atom of hopelessness 

Will joy ever found her peace? 

As she lays nostalgically on a bed of stone! 

She has been sleeping on a bed of stone 

Faith and doubt 

Prejudice and justice 

Who will separate praise from plague? 

As she lays uncomfortably on a bed of stone! 

Nigeria lies on a bed of stone! 

In the midst of abundance 

She suffers scarcity 

In the face of love 

She confronts hates and conflict 

Sitting deep in discord and nepotism 

Swimming in a threatened secession and injustice 

On a bed of stone she lies

Unfortunate and tragic! 

Bed of stone.

Prof Adejola Joseph.
