THE SILENT ONE (a father’s tribute)


Your silence is deafening but though

I have yet to grapple the words unsaid 

Your moods and sentiments 

I’ve to understand and respect

 

You prefer to works alone

To be left alone 

Even to suffer alone

But sometimes I can’t help interfering

 

Oftentimes we clashed over utility and aesthetics

But need not be

Since usefulness is beauty and

There’s beauty in functionality

 

Nurture your artistic inclinations 

Delight in your creations

More so, develop your EQ to match your high IQ

To be a better person

 

With hard work and God’s blessings

I’ve no doubt that you’ll succeed in your undertakings

Achieve your aspirations

Live your dreams.
