An ode to one who inspired
My soliloquy for the linguistic magician
My reason for these words
Poet extraordinare Benjamin
Thoughts with words fly from his mind
Sailed forward for all to hear
Rhythmic time and dulcit tone
Amazement, emotive, true and clear
Much more a Shakespeare
Eclipsing the John Donne
More than any Wordsworth
No less a human man
Once lived,now universal
Travelling through space and time
Light, shinning star\'s brighter, ONE Benjamin Zephaniah ..
