Poem Commentary

written for my grand father who just turned 90...written from the depth of my heart with adoration and gratitude

'90'

90 a milestone not many have been blessed to see
An age not many can boast to have reached
A time/Years  graced with maturity, wisdom  and valour
Moses Nsundabangwe Holonga you are one of a kind.
 
We have been blessed
To have been given even a moment in your presence
You carry yourself in a way that leaves people in ‘awe’
Leaves them wishing for more
More time spent with you
Time to learn, to listen, to observe
 
You are a teacher, a lover, a loved one, a husband, a father
 An uncle, a cousin, a friend, a brother, a grandfather, a great grandfather
You share of yourself selflessly
You inspire without trying
You blossom even through adversity
 
You effortlessly put a smile on those around you
People get excited at the mention of your name
We say ‘I am Rev. Holonga’s child/grandchild’
And people respond with glee
Your name is heard wide/all over for the greatness you have, done you have achieved.
 
I am blessed to have you in my life
We are blessed to know you
 
Rev. Moses Nsundabangwe Holonga
You are one of a kind
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
