My poems taech moral uprightness.

Examination Racketeering

Student who dances to the tune
Of an examination racketeer
Holds a credible results
That which he is not worthy of
A deceitful scholar,
A cunning, ill-literate fellow
Deceiving no one, but himself

Conscience tells, output shows
That examination racketeering
Is education devaluation
Presenting ostensible graduates
And belittles certificates awarded
Facial graduates with worthless brain
Performing abysmally
When called upon to discharge
Learners need to be high-minded
As far as knowledge and certificates are concerned



Dullard

Being a dullard is not inborn
It also doesn’t happens at once or by chance though,
Though, there is variation in level of understanding
As a result of ordainment
But not to the worst state of being a dullard
Since tuition rule says
No student is unteachable
Many pupils are affected by
Untapped human and material resources

Dullard occurs piece meal
It is a gradual accumulation
Of various unknown in the field of education
Dullard occurs as a result of
Lack of concentration to tutor’s explanation,
Failure to ask questions on difficult areas in classroom,
Lackadaisical attitude to a subject or topics
Hatred of teachers

Truancy and lateness to school,
Keeping the company of students,
Who are not studious
Not doing assignment given at school,
Rudeness to the school authority,
Not taken to correction in classroom
When corrected by the educators.


Mother
Oh! Mother
As faithful to a child as mother
Caring and caring all through child’s life
From cradle to tottering age
She is always the backbone of the baby
From infancy to adolescence stage
Her supportive moves are immeasurable
From adulthood to manhood and womanhood
The mother is a sincere mentor
Mother cares when others desert
Her tolerance is unparalleled
Absence of mother
May dent the child’s life
Mother’s plight is like a loss of gold.


Examination
No elevation without examination
Preparing for examinations is highly invaluable
Studious students are happy in the examination hall
indolent students are
afraid, confused and sad,
they are the cause of their misfortune by spending
all their leisure hours watching films
Restive watching of football
Is the order of the day
Watching soccer should be moderated
Too much of anything thinkers say is destructive.

Think deep and change your life style
Don’t waste your youthful age
Concentrate more on your studies
Your future lies in your attitude towards learning
And not how serious you are towards watching games.


Endurance
Life is full of ups and downs,
They are inevitable and bound by nature
Be courageous when the road is rough
Patience, prayer and perseverance are all you need
To scale through the hurdles of life

No one at the top
Climbed up with ease
Easy way up, is going up to fall
No matter the extent of your problem in life
Don’t compromise
Compromising derails the hope of man
Endure and don’t ever think
You’re at the end of the road.

Fondness
What are you fond of doing?
Are they illicit acts or irrelevant things?
Are they immoralities
Or irrational things?
How do you use your brain?
Is it on what will bring happiness to the world?
Or on what will jeopardize the peace of the community

If you are fond of doing what is unjust
You have to think more than twice
Look up and down
Gaze frontward and backward
View far and wide
To see that what is unjust is ruinous.
If you have been going the wrong direction
You must make a u-turn now
And start to act positively


Opportunity
Returning back to life today
After a long night rest
Is another opportunity for you,
To re-establish yourself,
To strategize and forge-ahead

To look in-depth into your career
And re-fashion for yourself
Better ways to succeed
To correct your previous days mistakes
And to turn over a new leaf
In all ramifications of human endeavours
That need to be corrected

Be devoid of time-wasting fruitless deeds
And adhere strictly
To fruitful goals of life

Determination
Without determination
No aim can come to pass
Without determination
No vision can be put to action

Someone who loses today
With great determination
He can be a winner of repute tomorrow
One who fails today
Can succeed tomorrow
If only he is determined to succeed.


Determination is engineered by
Perpetual striving until
A task is achieved
Lack of determination
Is lack of self-confidence
Determination is reservation of hope
In one’s endeavour….


Murderer
Blood is thicker than water.
Scientific breakthrough hasn’t achieve the production of blood.
This is the reason for blood transfusion
In our medical homes,
And that shows the unparalleled cost of the human blood.

Why destroying what one cannot restore?
Terminating the existence of fellow being like you
A murderer don’t like to mourn
But murders to make others mourners
A killer don’t like to cry
But kills to make others cry bitterly

The murderer of a soul
That goes scot-free on earth
Has only escaped the punishment of man
But what of that of our omnipresent creator?


Foresightedness
The developing and developed countries
Need foresighted compatriots
Who can visualize developmental ideas
Which make them think ahead of time
And bring out the talents in them
To make the world a better abode

The development of the world
Starts initially from the mind of people
This is creativity
Innovating solutions to peoples’ problems
Planning for tomorrow and generations yet unborn
Having vision of the time yet to come
Is the best wisdom one can possess

One shouldn’t restrict his thought to today alone
You need to create a picture of the future
In your heart and work towards it.
Make full utilization of your endowed intellect
To foresee the time of the future
