Candle in the wind 🍃
Tribute to Olusola Ayotunde Solarin
Boss as you are called 🤠
Indeed the wind denied your flame 🔥
The presage of the frailty of your flame was the wind🌬️
Soon it is out!
Eventful, selfless are your days 🗓️
Lived for impact
Imperfect but indelible footprint
👣
Time knows you came 🕰️
Even foes can attest your benevolence
Even the unavoidable death can not stop you from standing tall into the afterlife ⚰️
You are strong💪
You can not be 'was'
You live
You place your life in many 🇿🇦🇺🇸🇳🇬🇬🇧🇸🇹🇸🇿🇸🇳
You are seen Olusola
Everyday you are seen
You are unobliterable
In Doris we see you
In Esther we see you
In Anita we see you
In Princess we see you
In Isaac we see you
In many we see you
Though forcefully translated
Foes still can not rejoice.
