Great Akinwande Babatunde Oluwole Soyinka
The pregnant grey hairs
Will continue to have heirs
His pure heart
Has always paint itself raw in art
Where the blur sun
Shines bright to caress and rerun
Continuously in classical literary world
Remembering how time get tests been twirled
And opens doors for Yoruba-English literature
Model in his own life signature
Happy 86th birthday
Despite having had enough, he gets no holiday
Lest, rest set it wet,
His write remains memorable pet
To sing his name and swing
Its evergreen to the right wing
