Unwritten Words (For Caroline On Her Birthday) Poem by Tosin Adesokan

Unwritten Words (For Caroline On Her Birthday)



A food
is never a food
Until it is eaten....

A gift
is never a gift
Until it is gifted....

A poem
is never a Poem
Until it is read....

A word
is never a word
Until it is spoken....


An elder
has not reached an elderdom
Until being respected....


You
are never a year older
Until you achieve more....


May these words travel
to the past, present and future
to guide your days
