Discover territory Then fill the space Revive love Then fulfill mission Recover losses Then plug the holes Mind business Then share value Discover endowment Then mine the stage Prepare capacity Then build community  Recover health Then grow the fruits Identify land Then plant trees Discover treasure Then recycle the trash Dig deep Then buy field

Greedy eyes  Run after riches And poverty Abides with the lazy Proud heart  Picks a fight And partiality Stumbles in judgement Blind knowledge  Pampers a fall And purity Nurtures rare beauty

Poverty has no gene Work curates no loss Power has no path Water finds good course Tyranny has no friend Pressure cooks a bone Time has no boss Prudence makes good hay Thief has no wealth Greed does no good Trial has no harm Gardener makes good green Justice has no error Cycle bring no waste Peace has no strife Change makes caterpillar fly Evil has no prospect Fear does no good Envy has no grace Faith makes good sense

Anger partners with evil It courts many a curse Prudence expels wrath It embraces noble grace Anger partners with conflict It courts needless poverty Prudence spreads peace It welcomes steady progress Anger partners with fear It courts blatant defeat Prudence oozes faith It gains sweet victory Anger partners with waste It ruins royal palaces Prudence inclines right It builds to last Anger partners with hatred It lives a big lie Prudence swims in love It develops with ease Anger partners with ignorance It keeps a prison Prudence buys truth It becomes precious treasure Anger partners with wine It drowns the brain Prudence chooses sober reverence It uses good sense Anger partners with folly It nicely stunts growth Prudence sharpens iron It blooms on dictated lane Anger partners with bitterness It uproots prosperity Prudence calms the storm It reaps bountiful territory Anger partners with sickness It strains out vitality Prudence is good vitamin It keeps body and soul whole Anger partners

Little reform Restores the heritage Little grace Attracts great abundance Little greed Defeats the troop Little conflict Tampers with integer Little light Helps the feet Little effort Counts for something Little fly Stinks the scent Little doubt Dampens good courage Little yeast Raises the dough Little drops Constitute mighty ocean Little grease Stops the friction Little faith Shifts the mountain  Little fear Distorts the truth Little rot Wastes apple cart Little ant Lives prudent lessons Little space Makes enough room Little crack Ruins the wall Little error Blinds the guide Little water Quenches the thirst Little city Wields great power Little leak Drains the cistern Little tongue Spreads luxurious arrogance  Little curtain Covers the palace Little skill Wins daily bread ...

There is a loud laughter in heaven It mocks unwholesome permutations And derides warped combinations Round the chapter around And rebuild the old ruins Tell it in the ear of insecure titles It is time to let Nigeria go And favour her just cause Release the strong branch And experience a new lease There is a new breed on the horizon It opposes a corrupt night And shines a new dawn of hope Raise up the foundation of posterity And restore the lost glory There is a pebble for every giant It is always despised by the easy And ignored by the unbelieving crowd Ride on the wings of the wind And bring the throne to Zion The eyes of the Lord are everywhere Examining the secret abominations Servants of the Most High God See light at the end The remnant will be saved and made great

History has hindsight Prudence has foresight Faith has insight Fear is too blurry to see Humility has health Purity has honour Sober has life Novice is too full to learn House has wall Window has glass Door has key Trick is too rusty to win Heart has depths Mind has chambers Feet has  Goggle is too weak to decipher Haves have a maker Havenots have a maker Middle-belts have a maker Truth is too grand to be ignored 

On common ground There are varied outcomes  In unique space Fingerprints differentiate the goods On common ground There are varied soils In fertile field Fruits separate the trees On common ground  There are varied wills In rejuvenated space Most High crowns the servant On common ground  There are varied goods In sundry markets Excellence lights the way   On common ground There are varied students In worthy schools Water sustains the fish

The weather is always cold For a lazy hunter The harvest is never ripe For a sleepy farmer The street is always dangerous For an expensive foot The sky is never open For a luxury bird The food is always hot For a lazy belly The freedom is never due For a willing captive The throne is always small For a lazy heir The land is never green  For a prodigal heart The good is always worthless For a boastful buyer The bone is never sufficient For a greedy dog The field is always slippery For a lazy runner The warning is never loud  For a stony heart The time is always now For a good ant The season is always ripe For a noble deed

Faith gives good gifts And they are timely truths Patience gives faithful kisses And they are beautiful feet Faith gives good gifts And they are bitter pills Love gives honest answers And they are beautiful treasure Faith gives good gifts And they are deep insights  Hope gives peaceful seeds And they are beautiful investments Faith gives good gifts And they are pure fountains Prudence gives rich offerings And they are beautiful minds Faith gives good gifts And they are golden vessels Heaven gives abundant rain And they are satisfying bread ...

The task of bearing pollens from stamens to stigmas seem simple, but not every insect was made with willing or helpful instincts. We owe our food: fertilized plants, fruits, seeds and young plants to the efficiency of bees and other pollinators. Nature and nurture inspire gratitude. #WorldBeeDay

With helpful bees And ready hands Seeds can become trees And trees can become forests With helpful bees And facultative agents Planet can become green And vegetables can become circular With helpful bees  And opportunistic guests Fruits can become welcome And wellness can become sustained With helpful bees And willing hearts Partnerships can become concrete And blocks can become buildings With helpful bees And resilient units Obstacles can become opportunities And wastes can become wealth 

The table is set And only mercy satisfies The store is full And only love is right The eye is open And only bread satisfies The ear is present And only truth is welcome The neck is willing And only insight satisfies The hand is ready And only knowledge is precious The board is plain And only prudence satisfies The donkey is available And only history is just The harvest is ripe And only fruit satisfies The nation is toiling And only Christ is salvation

Sweet and busy bee Grace humble tea Sting every trespass Sweet and busy bee Colour spring water. Sting every infection Sweet and busy bee Soothe sundry burns Sting every fear Sweet and busy bee Instruct willing minds Sting every idol Sweet and busy bee Buzz faithful sounds Sting every doubt

Honest poverty Gets a good reward Impatient error Loses any chance Hardworking ant Consults humble history Lazy nation Counts on crude barrel Hopeful servant Gets a golden crown Repentant heart Obtains tender mercy Across borders City walls Village squares Temple courts And households Doormats shine

Dry goods keep well Dainty bads are excused Prudent insight earns a wage Arrogant knowledge goes hungry Good deeds speak well Greedy quest lacks a voice Truthful lip welcomes health Tainted tongue needs a physician Pure hearts live well Painted minds extol prejudice Patient builder finds a rock Hasty driver pays a fine Childlike faith hopes well Cocky anxiety pampers distress Princely rag has a graceful gene Folly stays sour and stubborn Educated sheep learns well Exiled goat appreciates a good stick Matter occupies available space Clouds and winds can be useful

Impulse lacks heart Contentment breathes well Nature is rich Skill lives in a tent Falsehood files bankrupcy Honey runs a store Faithful knows its maker Sober inherits a fold Folly harbours anger Prudence defuses rage Ignorance is a risk Insight is sexy Wandering stars fail Brilliance welcomes rebuke Distraction is for sale Focus is a priviledge  Touchy vomits words Ant keeps them on track   Wrong can repent  Right is always timely

Doubt misses the train Fear finds no fish Faith gains the field Obedience obtains mercy Prejudice misses the mark Division troubles the nation Heaven quakes the earth Love reaps the harvest Pride curries flies and stench Rebellion hosts foxes Poverty knows the Most High Peace worships in the tent

Faith feeds on truth Fear spreads pollution Faith enthrones the poor Fear overthrows the mighty Faith is well-advised Fear has no shepherd Faith grows little by little Fear runs a hasty sprint Faith sips fresh spring Fear loves shallow pond Faith retains hope Fear ignores present help Faith is always reverent Fear denies the self-existent One  Faith walks with prudence Fear lives with folly Faith searches history  Fear chooses sensation Faith keeps a farm Fear courts famine

Consistency becomes a guide  Right chooses purity Consistency becomes excellent Right remains fulfilled Consistency becomes a ruler Right chooses wheat Consistency becomes ladder Right transforms chaff Consistency becomes a troop Right chooses shield Consistency becomes light Right upgrades operations Consistency becomes a farmer Right chooses work Consistency becomes water Right refreshes cities Consistency becomes a person Right chooses character Consistency becomes a mountain Right provides shelter Consistency becomes careful Right chooses slow cooker Consistency becomes thoughtful Right embraces prudence Consistency becomes searchlight Right chooses advocate Consistency becomes little Right remains teachable Consistency becomes lowly Right chooses tick Consistency becomes friendly Right stays grateful Consistency becomes advisor Right chooses menu Consistency becomes solution Right hosts royalty Consistency becomes just Right chooses might Consistency becomes plain Right extols sou

Indignation arrests development Peace opens the prison Junk clogs tunnel Fruit empties the filth Rage seizes economy Mercy opens the gate Ignorance clutches wings Truth releases the captive Channel constrains light Sky expands the room Humanity leaks matter Divinity injects strength Worry chokes potential Petition infuses zeal Pride stiffens neck Justice rules with equity Oppression stifles voice Equity rings a bell Darkness canopies treasure Light converts liability

Slack courts poverty Incompetence snorrs chance away Goodness retains savour  Inclination is noteworthy Idols are worthless Broken walls endanger nations Perfect stone is seamless Cornerstone is standard Scale has a fit Doubt holds a trap Poverty replaces trouble Integer wins majority of one Bears care for lamb chops Lions pounce on territory Blessing releases grace Cities influence peace Handshake has no safe Greed may own the street Purity inclines right Virtue is evergreen

No risk, no returns No faith, no pleasure No adventure, no discovery No business, no gains No retreat, no direction No grace, no worth No cross, no glory No trial, no promotion  No responsibility, no freedom No discipline, no dominion No peace, no progress No repentance, no transformation No question, no answer No problem, no solution No surrender, no redemption No prayer, no deliverance ...

When peace rules Cities stay grateful Towns live in awe Villages grow fruits When light shines Cities turn around Towns get lively Villages welcome development When judges rule Cities make room Towns pursue wind  Villages draw shadows When justice comes Cities come clean Towns remove mask Villages become circular When prudence saves Cities sigh relief Towns restore grace Villages keep value 

History has wit Only folly disdains it Prudence opens doors Except seared heart History has treasure Only pride ignores it Prudence makes stars Except fallen angels History has maps Only wanderer excuses it Prudence stays focused Except on distraction _ History matters Inspiration counts Prudence matters Peace rules

Faith is conspicuous And pleasantly rewarding Faith is obedient And certainly teachable Faith is thoughtful And steadily convincing Faith is attentive And obviously divine Faith is grateful  And certainly discerning Faith is wholehearted And lovingly true ... Faith has no idols

Excuse courts want Linger watches cycle Flattery traps rat Truth offers healing Coals burn feet Cost wearies sloth Folly wastes words Dove breaks a bone Ants love work  Insight shoulders good Yes says no Spider occupy heights ... Gratitude repents

Crown seats aloof Pauper finds water Crown feels entitled Pauper finds relief Crown feels comfortable Pauper finds boundary Crown opens wide Pauper finds girdle  Crown acts lazy Pauper finds business Crown hangs around Pauper finds purpose Crown feels tired Pauper finds strength Crown counts stars Pauper becomes one  ... Names locate us And we can construct them Decisions shape us And we can make with counsel

Answers of peace Are prudent Persons of peace Stay welcome Tents of peace Host mercy Goods of peace Ooze virtue Offers of peace Win goodness Gifts of peace Stay golden Pursuits of peace Gain ground Makers of peace Grow green Keepers of peace Sustain planet Times of peace Fuel development  

Transformation is a process It turns a caterpillar around Restores the original intent And enlivens the garden Change begins in one mind It seeps into a village Gallops to the streets And reaches the planet Development holds a thought It embraces a mission Stirs up sundry agents And streams to goodness #Development #Change #Mindset

Envy  Rots a marrow Love  Lights up the room Greed Drains a life Love  Yields the nation Hatred Defeats a mission Love Conquers the territory Bitterness Withers a tree Love  Blooms the desert Fear Cripples a horse Love  Drowns the impossibility Doubt Impverishes a village Love  Saves a city

Make up Feels inadequate Greed  Feels hungry Cook up Feels insufficient Desire Feels empty Run up Feels slow High up Feels far Pack up Feels tired Lace up Feels confined Look up Feels ignorant Come up  Feels welcome Line up Feels orderly Wake up Feels sleepy Close up Feels plain Climb up Feels left Break up Feels big Bear up Feels useful Rise up Feels lame Open up Feels safe  Built up Feels adequate Dry up Feels full Grow up Feels loved Store up Feels prudent Set up Feels enough Train up Feels noble

In its own sight Prudence is always little On its own assessment Grace remains small Easy pond stays stale Gentle arrows yield daily fruits Growing wings soar Question stirs up insight Single heart with open ears Is a worthy tool Who hurries a speaking snail Experience drifts from origin Snorring dwarf comes awake Browny branch becomes green Numb skill regain sense Lame knees acquire strength Vision can not be fooled And rituals do not save Truth cannot be stopped And wonders may lie
