Lessons from my father
Father was an acumen,
The doublefold of Solomon's wisdom
Resides in his words
.
Father and his sarcastic smile,
Hardly seen through his coughs
When pulling out his pipe from his mouth
.
"my son" He said frantically
As he chuckles through his wrinkles
Look at me! What do you see?
I stammered, I chuckled, became confused
.
Life is a puzzle! He muttered as His mouth
Reached out for is pipe again
Asking me to pour him more of mama sodiq's Palm-wine
Strength and might are weak to solve this puzzle!
But great wisdom is stronger! He said
Grow up son! Grow up!!
The doublefold of Solomon's wisdom
Resides in his words
.
Father and his sarcastic smile,
Hardly seen through his coughs
When pulling out his pipe from his mouth
.
"my son" He said frantically
As he chuckles through his wrinkles
Look at me! What do you see?
I stammered, I chuckled, became confused
.
Life is a puzzle! He muttered as His mouth
Reached out for is pipe again
Asking me to pour him more of mama sodiq's Palm-wine
Strength and might are weak to solve this puzzle!
But great wisdom is stronger! He said
Grow up son! Grow up!!
