The Beautiful of Birthday
Cry! Cry!! Cry!!!
The Nature Stand Still
Listen! Listen!! Listen!!!
What a cry with tiding joys
Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!
The Earth proclaims…
Plus One to balance my being

Where was I? Where was I?
Decades ago; in wondering land
I perceived a fast breath
Why! Why!! Why!!!
She’s birth; she’s here; just now!
Wow! Beautiful; wonderful; Greatness
What a combination.

I listen to my heart
I visualize; happy family
A second to be
The only Queen amoung three Kings
Nne, Daddy joyfully proclaim her
JaneMaureen!
Oh Mother! A Golden Heart
You no left behind
Abuilder of family; a lover of home#
Though not jealous; I see you in her
You whisper, like the gentle voice
To Elijah; the Bible
Chidinma; Chidinma; Chidinma
Yes! A name with blessings
God is beautiful
She’s beautiful
God is Great
She’s great
God is wonderful
She’s wonderful
I celebrate with her
My friend, my colleague
Yes, she is plus one today
With a unique numerical
So let’s party
