(one last word to A HERO and A MENTOR)
Here you lay in a coffin made of wood
unaware of the fellowship you've made
a man of virtue with much yet to say
I've cried, now not a tear drops
You left with so much achieved.
Achebe; deeper thought of mankind
a man built in humility.
I learnt thy ways in'THINGS FALL APART'
am still on it: ...while You were called.
hope is, we never forget how freedom is,
a walk to the dream land.
you have seen it,
yet we abide by Him who recalls.
goodbye see us soon for surely that road awaits.
please let me border thy one more time,
tell Him to guide us as we meditate and imitate your ways.
