MAMMY MARKET |
They rise with the east to get what to eat They set with the west to get their rest They shine with the sun eke out with toil Their daily labour with the zest of the sun
This is the lesson to learn from these persons No one works as hard as their vivid voice No one thinks as hard as their booming brain They go about their chores not minding the pain
They knew the pain that comes with gains They do their chores comes shines comes rains Their gain is nothing but as dimes as small And yet their presence is felt by all
Therefore, let your presence be felt by all Not for ill, but always for the goodwill of all.
