ODE TO A GEM (Otunba Dolamu)

By Dr. Oke Aruleba@Deprof

Permit me to celebrate a dear brother
Using the medium of Poesy
Never have you heard this from a brother:

I treasure you unquantifiably

Age disparity is no barrier
To your being my Mentor
Which opened a new Vista of further growth beyond the Ivory.

What a prodigiously cerebral Being you are!

Your Being has made so many to BE
A Dream Maker.

A humble Achiever

Silver or Gold is inadequate
To celebrate a Silent , Humble, Achiever

In Auden’s poetic line I find expression:

I love you, dear Otunba Dolamu

I treasure you like Pluto’s Mine

You are a brother and friend, a Diamond of sort

Longevity, prosperity and peace of mind are your portion in Christ

Enjoy your day Omo Aba ‘Deluyi.

Bonne Anniversaire !
Bonne Chance !
