Notice of absence from Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
I will surely get back to you when I come online.
I will surely get back to you when I come online.
Oh! Dike bu dike
A living icon
Whose pen
Bleeds wits.
All Protocols,
Was dully observed
Abigail, decries the plights
Of the girl-child.
Absurdity speaks
In All Protocols Observed
Where nzuzu,
Mocks Wazobia.
Dike, mentor
of generations,
Many have suckled
And rockled his wits.
Nna of blessed kids
Dike bu dike,
Ichie of timber and caliber
Grey hairs his cap.
Today,
We gladly rejoice
With you,
Live long, and age with grace.
