There Was A Time

There was a time

When you could buy everything for a dime

From apples to gold

Everything that was sold.

There was a time

When mangoes were called lime,

Or even grapes or orange

It would be a continuous change.

There was a time

When people were not fine

They had no clue

As to what was false or true

Then the almighty made his presence

To educate us with his essence

Into a human he turned

To help all those who yearned

He decided to share his wisdom

With all in the kingdom

Help them all a bit

So their own destiny they could knit

He tried to make them all wise

But the people thought otherwise

They laughed and laughed

For they were all daft.

But the god had taken a pledge

To share his knowledge

He influenced one by one

Everyone under the sun

 

He educated all the nation

And there was a big celebration

For they were not fools any more

And wisdom and knowledge they bore.

He nurtured the tree

Of wisdom you see 

He protected them from a great fall

For he was a teacher after all
