Poem

Benjamin was his name 
He holds the torch of his fame 
On a place where natives dwell 
Faraway across the hill 

In his years he was a captain 
But to the tribes he was a chieftain;
On the place where wild canes grow 
He was praised like a hero 

For five decades he held his crown 
With the light of his wisdom 
He was a ruler in his own realm 
Where the upright revered his charm 

He charmed the hearts of the council 
With the brilliance of his counsel;
He held the flames of justice 
In a way where there could be peace 

He pacified the hearts that fight 
With the flames of his wisdom 
He led his people and ruled them right
In his minute kingdom

He sent message to those who slay 
That taking lives is not the way 
For his grace reigns in those who yield 
In those who turn the other cheek

But in the year where tigers reign 
The angels came with an omen,  
The sage with heart and brain 
Walked his way to heaven 

But his wisdom made a mark
The path was tamed by his spark
His blood came forth to make a track
May they serve with good remark

In memory of my 2nd degree grandfather Benjamin and my childhood place of Lidlidda, named after wild canes
