My grandfather - My best friend [A POEM]
My grandfather - My best friend (a poem)
He was tall, black
Full of grace and handsome
Revered, famous and well-known
Respected, acclaimed and influential
He was my grandfather
I grew up in a rusty Village
A Village densely populated
In an era were civilization was unknown
A time when tradition and culture Played significant roles
A season of equality and fairness
Equity was a tangible gift
Valour, strength and wisdom
Played important roles
Respect, honour were virtues of life
Grandfather epitomizes them all
A rare gem of his time
An astute peace maker
He was my mentor, friend and companion
He was my BEST FRIEND.
