So This Is Daddy Poem by Haruna Garba

So This Is Daddy



And so this is Daddy
Daddy in a little frame

So this is Daddy-dear
Daddy mother kept

Sad! This is really him
How was he urged on?

Land first, skin first
Or was it face first?


Here he is
Father tacked in a frame

Here he is
Daddy hinging on a hook

Here is Daddy
They remember once a year

Here is Daddy
Estate in sheer rots

So This Is Daddy
