»The Bible«

by Tshepo Direro, January 26, 2017

The book that man has failed to understand over the ages,
it contains riches beyond our wildest imaginations.
It is a light to the path;
wisdom to the truth seeker;
a guide to the lost;
a hope to the hopeless;
a puzzle to the intellectuals;
salvation to the believers;
poem to the poets;
philosophy to the philosophers;
hymn to the musicians and;
above all it is a mystery.
