         DONUM Gifts, give and take O Lord, why would a gift not  be given to me ? Each day is a little life Every waking and rising a little birth Every fresh morning a little youth Every going to rest and sleep a little death. But no complacency, bitter Yes, and now I'm given the donum, filled with the joy of the world A life becomes the donum. Living for each day, a new chapter A new sign and wonder My hands hunger for the donum Alas! my soul seeks. BABAJIDE " K.BABS " KEHINDE
