LIFE’S NOT A DREAM

Row, row, row your boat... Gently down the stream, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily... life is just a dream.

Please I beg to disagree, that life is just a dream, for if life were to be a dream you wouldn’t need to scream when danger loomed, laughing grim because you would know that you could always wake up with a grin.

A dream would mean all plants were green, no seasons, no treason, and definitely no reason to make you green. A dream would mean we wouldn’t have dreams and work all the days of our dreams trying to make it real...

In dreams you just voice your wish and it becomes real - but in life, there is no genie; all we have are our genes that would help us attain our different dreams. In dreams no one wears jeans, just royal garbs meant for kings and queens or maybe some princess and prince.

If life were to be a dream then everything we had would be free, and we would float about without gravity, drawing all shapes in the skies to capture our glee...Ahem... we would all have salad, chicken, dessert and none would soak garri.

If life were to be a dream, then guns and swords wouldn’t be...Say, what dreams would build weapons for world war three? And for profits, throw a killing spree?

It’s only truly holidays in dreams; in life, holidays are never free because your workload on work days, pay the holidays’ fee...No thoughts to scare you with any negativity...Just thought to reveal how real life is beyond the rim of dreams.
In life diabetes waits after ice cream, an eye for an eye, plus good for evil, please don’t scream...because even if you do, you won’t wake up from this dream.

In life, our paddles are hoes and tractors and fire grills...Sorry, there are no boats just mighty warships & we have oceans, seas and rivers in place of streams
Please I do not agree that life is just a dream, cos that would mean that the Bible is a book of fantasy...it would mean that there was no old rugged tree... and death would lunch on our kidneys without a fee...yes and our eyes for dessert pastry...

But I know a land where the imaginations of dreams are paled... the journey to this beautiful land begins from Galilee... up to the tree in the centre of the three... on Golgotha, the skull that’s called a hill... takes you through where Hades lost its thrill... and finally submits you to the throne room, where Yehova chills... the beautiful city...the beautiful city indeed where everything is free...

I’m on the road to that city, that’s why life to me is a journey...so you too could take life as a journey... and ride steady on your donkey...so trot, trot, trot your horse gently down the road...
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life could lead to thrones...
