Though I’m here lying on my King-sized bed, I have voyaged the world, my sandals badly worn out even though my bedspread still maintains its revered pure white color.
I have traveled far and wide in the quest for whom to trust, the great princess awaits my result.
I thought of trusting the sun, because it brightens my skies all day, but I wept when I remembered how it left me in the cold hands of darkness at night.
I tried trusting the stars because it colored my dark skies, but I was dejected when I realized they were not always there for me.
Should I trust the green plants that color my scenery? But my good friend, history reminds me that someday, the greenest of all plants will wither and be an ugly sight to behold.
I tried trusting the cool moon, but I remember how it left me to the hot scorch of the sun at day.
I wanted to trust the Cozy rains that water my favorite green plants, but I remembered how these rains have left me gazing up at hopeless clouds on several occasions.
I thought of trusting the rainbow that color my skies, but then I remembered that these rainbows are rarely there for me.
At this point, I wanted to give up this seemingly impossible quest, but then I remembered this quest was for the Great Princess Lulu and I must return with a result.
At this hopeless juncture, I wanted to trust the Great Princess Lulu and end this exhausting quest, but I remembered the Princess too is human and ‘it is Human nature to err’, won’t I be subject to her errors?
I wanted to trust myself but I remembered the times I gave up those critical tasks just because of laziness and lust beyond my control. I should not be trusted.
This quest seemed so hopeless and I damned the consequences of quitting, but then someone touched my mind and turned my hopeless end to an endless hope, yes! The one this quest is all about.
The one who colored my skies when the stars were not there
The one who gives me the moonlight when the sun left me alone with a dark stare
The creator who created beautiful creatures to beautify my scenery all-round the year
The one who gives me rain even when its season isn’t near
The one whom I’m totally sure of his care
My everlasting light in times when gloom was here
IN GOD I TRUST
A big shout out to Pelumi Olaitan for this :D
