' RISE! '

As the waves rise above the sea,
clearing the coast for all to see,
stealthily moving at a low ebb
while making ridges of great height
that seem like bridges at first sight
to seer of leisure,
to lovers of pleasure.

As rivers overflow the bank,
to spread its contents over the land.
As sewage flows out of septic tanks,
fluidly chasing one another
to escape from its confines.

As birds hover above the sky,
as they flap their wings upward,
as they perch on the iroko trees,
watching, scheming, planning
for the next meal onward.

So can you rise beyond the limits,
so must you fight against the limits,
so can you face your fears
and set the motions for the fare.
The sky is no more the limit,
so must your flight not delimit
your goals and ambitions in life.

Rise above the perceived boundary,
boundaries you built for yourself.
Walls of failures and constraints,
bridges of unseen vast territories,
shackles of unshaken strings
that bind men against his treasures.

The best is yet to come
as we sojourn in an endless world.
Endless possibilities,
countless opportunities
to what you can achieve,
to what I can achieve!
