The Story In The Name Poem by Phillip Nine Mafunga

Ever thought o'the beauty o' peace n' calm
Vivaciousness that illuminates the crevices of sadness
Early down pours tried so hard to rain on n' dampen the future,
Ravines swarmed over innocence that Providence secured though with a
Juxtaposition of happiness n' uncertainty: solid outcomes of tenacity that
Overt inner beauty, sumptuously amplified the covert intellect that
Yet was to blossom for the world to experience: eased through impervious years o' self-restraint n' disciplined study
That's the beautiful story in the name.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVERJOY MANYATI!
