Welcome 2024 Poem by Kingsley Egbukole

A friendly welcome I bid you
Like a dear pally in sojourn
Three hundred and sixty six days long

Please be humble and kind
To the request of my needs
In the period of our cohabitation

Many of your predecessors have journeyed
This new terrain of yours before now
And their deeds lay solidly as monuments to judge

Choose to be good with sweet memories left
Or prefer to be bad and hated
With a sneer and curse to your name.
