For Eunice Jossy
The song about you is love.
I have knitted your laughter
In the coven of my heart to rest,
fondled your smiles to rest in peace,
Remembering your defeat to hatred.
We'll sing of you in unison uptown
the mountain of the world of Benue
to declare freedom to your unborn dreams.
Your stories of realities shall be
sounded at Idoma clan of your bravity.
May we always remember this:
We'll paint on the walls of joy
never shall your sun Smit you!
You are of a great woman of strength,
bottling the flashes of the timid moon
and keeping the glowing of your smiles.
You are a Queen of the middle belt,
the awaken light of bouncing tomorrow
brighting many souls deceived by westernization.
You have a tale in your eyes of eyes
which shall resound farther soonest,
when Idoma and the world shall behold you,
we will dance along the field of longativity
of age which heaven endowed you with.
...and I said my birthday wishes.
