Adeleke Adeite Poet Free verse

Thank You

To you my fair feathered friend
That has got lovely lights to lend
I also have a sweet savor to send
 before our days come to an end.
This is all I have to say to my best friend
-Thank you for the hands you always lend
Thank you for the love you always send
Thank you for the time you always spend
 Thank you for the flowers you always tend
Thank you for the mess you always mend
Thank you for the rags you always rend
 Thank you for the bows you always bend
 I know there are times I always wend
I know there are times I follow wrong trend
But I would now my ways amend
Please I never intend to condescend
