Poem

So Edward Kamanzola was born on the Christmas Day
The year 1943 and this was declared a rare luck; 
And fortune was expected to trail his life all the way
To his doubtless toothless longevity of an octogenarian.
And true luck was his mate throughout
For his success no one could doubt.

He joined school at an unusual young age
Where his class he topped to the final year, 
Outshining his peers at every examinable stage
Till he moved to the best secondary school in Kenya.
Alliance High School was not every Tom’s cup of tea
But it was to Kamanzola as cheap as a grain of pea.

As you had guessed, our genius went to the University of Nairobi
Where a degree in heart surgery he pursued to the end; 
And rewarding our academic stalwart who opposed all anomie, 
He became a government adviser on aristocratic cardiovascular details
Whereof he for long helped disentangle top thorny assassination tales.

He feared the honking of motor vehicles, 
And loathed the beggary of the hordes on the streets; 
So he locked himself in his office with other learned Michaels  
Till he came down with a woeful heart attack, 
A disease that ended the 60-year trail of luck.
