Bunmi - 50 Years On! Poem by Jude Ogunade

When their lies blinded my thought,
You sought me and had me taught.
When their wiles had me perturbed,
You loved me, lifting me up!

Your shoulders I first leaned on,
You soothed me from their wrongs.
Dividing the food thereon,
Whilst feeding me all along.

Brother like you who can find?
A great one, a different kind!
Loving like a giant pine,
Shading me, making me fine.

Fine I am! My mind is fine!
Now with you I want to dine.
Where are you I want to shine?
In you my thoughts incline!
