DONGOYARO!
The iroko may be
The tallest in the forest
But I know the secrets
Of men better than him
The woman with the
Secret child whose
Husband must not know
Sits and cries at my
Trunk willing my
Roots to keep her throes
'I must keep my crown' she says
So down in the waters of my heart
Is the secret piece of peace of her heart.
