Dear Chinua Achebe
You are so dear
To deprived souls
You loved us dearly
And so were we
you purified and softened
our hearts and minds
with your literary wares
you who had turned
down golds and silvers
for national love
and renaissance.
You are dead and alive
I revere you my rolemodel .
Rest in perfect peace.
Iroko Dear!
