NATURE

The nature twinkle like little stars.
Its a born beauty everyone treasure the most.
The nature of women pick up pains.
Pains in her eyes smoulders .
Making oceans of treasures flow down her twinkle eyes.
Only the nature still bless women by easing their affairs.
Everything becomes glowing like a diamond in the sky.
Forgetting her pains
Forgetting her tears
Nature becomes scintillating as though nothing has happened.

They both screamed, to them Lagos is home, a place for all, it is as if they were given their long lost joy, they didn't hide it and was happy to tell everyone who cares to listen that they are moving back to Lagos, one whom sees them can say they both look like children who were given candy, luckily it was on the mainland of Lagos exactly what they wanted, to them the standard of living on Island is high.
