The Only Magic Man We Ever know! - A Poem For Lee On His Birthday, by Yemi Oke
A Poem By Yemi Oke - For Lee Whalley on his birthday.
The only Magic Man we ever know!
Social media we see today steals something important from us
So much that we often get buried in the moment while trying to come alive within the pages we view
While some lose their originality for the applaud of men
Others, in the presence of loved ones, remain so far away
But with your ingenuity, we’ve seen differently
And with your creative mind, you’ve brought back
That which was once stolen - mindfulness!
Without reflecting on your work – a masterpiece of dreams laid bare
And on your pleasing personality,
This piece, you now read, would have remained an unwritten lyrical masterpiece
Long forgotten and buried: finding solace among the dead!
Social media we see today steals something important from us
But, with your work, creativity is unlocked, information given and beauty appreciated
For the world to see, the beauty of your mind expressed through the pages of social media
Happy Birthday to you!
