Emmanuel Chikwe

Are you still in Lagos or gone to the East?
For the last time that i met you was in Orile;
Emmanuel Chikwe, this is a friend of yours writing,
So keep up the faith and do your best at all times.

I am with words from afar to touch you over there,
Like the angels in the great river Euphrates;
But of the hair like that of a woman to know your stituation.
Fly up high and reachout to all,
Learn about life and be very kind to all;
For my mind is like the teeth of the lion at times.

Emmanuel Chikwe,
I hope you are now married with children;
So try to wake to the facts like the tail of the scorpion,
And i do hope you well in all of your undertakings over there.
