Mobile Scenery

Mobile Scenery

By Frank Bolaji Irawo

The present is not where I want to be

Can't live with what I see

Not satisfied with my lot

A strong desire to be over there

Where the grass is always greener

Keep changing things to make it better

Changed my clothes

Changed my hairstyle

Changed how I speak

Change where I live

Changed my friends

Changed my job

Changed my church

Still not much has changed

It finally occurred to me

I must be looking at mobile scenery

I carry around in my mind

From it there is no easy escape

It's there, even when I close my eyes

I best get on with changing it

behold the scenery of unconditional love

The gifts of a life that radiates it

Unchanging, unshakeable

Then, regardless of things around me

I live Fulfilled and satisfied

In the universe's abundant supply
