Funmbi Aransiola - Love

There was a man who saw a scorpion floundering around the water
He decided to save it by stretching out his finger
But the Scorpion Stung him
The man still tries to get the scorpion out of the water
But the Scorpion Stung him again
Another man nearby told him to stop saving the scorpion that kept stinging him
But the man said 'it's the nature of the scorpion to sting. It's my nature to love. Why should I gave up my nature to love just because it is the nature of the scorpion to sting? '
