An Ode To High Cheif Esievo
High cheif peter Esievo,the ugherughe
1 of Agbon kingdom
far beyond bars your fame has spread
in the lips of school boys sings forth
your praises.
From the mouth of poor mothers
echoes forth your name in melodies
the gray-headed men pours out of
their wisdom incannation and
libration of blessing.
The strength of youth and their agility
you did reward and makes them
wear an always smile.
You are the famous BIG MIKE, an
image of the benevolent God
JEHOVAH, God of the heavens.
His sun and rain he gives freely on
both the good,bad and the urgly,this
too you have shown.
Vain is the dog who cheases after an
elephant,may same before your foe.
The more you take from the sea sand,
the more it becomes. May same
before your wealth.
The tales of your good acts birth forth
from the lips of mr G.T,the boy who
made ovu proud and other kindred
folks.
And so i, a poet bleeds forth from my
quil these praise lines.
Ovu and oviorie
says thank you
''BIG MIKE''.
