Sleep well Dear brother
Sleep well Dear brother
Dear brother, you had a color so bright.
In all you did, with a very good sight.
I will always admire your great might,
That even when there was a blight,
You did things right!
Dear brother, when we saw you fight,
And mid night oils you burnt at night,
We hope you will be a lovely robed knight,
But suddenly you took an awful flight,
To be with God in the heights!
You were envied because of your greatness;
Admired; you shamed many in their emptiness;
Liked, of your personality and cheerfulness;
A great companion because of your openness;
Farewell brother, drink from the cup of joyfulness!
It was one sad morning, we woke up to it
Took hours to believe.
You were gone, grave buried you in it.
Since then, dear brother, we have refused to accept it.
But we have accepted it in our minds not our hearts, the defeat,
Not for anything; because God gives and takes it!
Always hilarious!
Always bringing life to the party !
Always glorious !
Always dubious !
Always loving and kind!
Always serious and ambitious!
Sleep well , dear brother, Ekasire Etukudoh
