Happy Dads Day

Forever you're gonna be my papa Even if I no rich and I be palmwine tapper. The joy you gave me by reincarnating Is priceless and worth celebrating; I knew you replaced yourself before you left And even though I gleaned, I wept. Table have turned and I am now your father, And I shall love and guide you to the top of the ladder; Alabi, amongst men you shall be a king, Like a robin who amongst birds can sing And amongst fathers I shall be a proud dad To a son who in the life before was my dad; Happy Dads day to us amazing men, So sings my artful bamboo Pen. I am Ayinde the lyrical genius!
