Lite[r]

His birth brought the being of a wondrous ray
of the sun on this blessed blissful day
The worth of the cloud were cooling and creamily glowing
With the breeze of the breeze breezing, swooshing singing
singing haply on high in their tonal codes echoing through
The four pillars bolstering the plane of this planet's course
All ears heard of the news of his birth like the birth of Jesus
The Andrew through whose light lives shall first
In whose credible prize no monies could host

Yay! The Cherubs in paradise pray preying to fill into your space
For your ways are glorious and crystal like the rare diamond
from far places past the ken of men in the planes of the almond
Plant which emits living breathe unto goodness of any race
Oh! Goodnews you're good and another good news is you're humble:
So mellow like the ways brook look calm to the face it flows without a babble
And the ways chameleon in its glorious fame walks with ease
But yet unique and so you as well unto a lion
I whose gentle looks lie the craziness of a devouring aeon
As your calmly looks cannot be contemned for granted lest your fangs fly tearing stones so
So you are the best of your kind and thy birth is unto a king
With tons of minions at nurture through your creative know-hows being

And aye shall I forget how supportive and believing you be?
Shall I not speak of your astounding innovative intellect nay?
Shall I not loud lauding (of) your practices to see the goodness in your fellows?
Shall I not sing of your kindness when you tip the needy cows?

Shall I not lament of how they try and always mock you?
Shall I not condemn when they wanted to defile you?
Shall I not rebuke life for not giving us the two of you?
Shall I not plead God to keep your aura high and your moral high?

As the stars in the skies to be today would party for you tonight
As the sun would shine on high golden for you at noon
For the morn as being clear and desiring unto humanity today yet
As the Father of the spirit of mankind enlarged your fountain so
As the mother heart be at a felicity as it is your day
I as well have come in my humble and gay gown to wish you brotherly
With wishes of hale health ad hearty heart
Much more monies and longer life to expend 'em
Far far distances to your feet to places of dreams
And stages ye have resigned in your thoughts as seem's
And I say, happy birthday, rejoice in His mercies till He comes.

Roll in joys thanking God as it is your birthday. Happy birthday bro and now

In short, where are we meeting to celebrate your kingful birth bro?! 😍

"The first thing my mother failed to teach me is how not to be contented in life. She understands few English language Proverbs and the one quick to her mouth is 'half a bread is better than no bread.’"

"In my childhood, I still remember as if it was last night it happened. It was clearly dark and an evil walked among our beds; I was scared to the bone and my mother was scared to the bone too. She looked at me and I could feel her breath rest on my shivering countenance in sequence. She pitied her poor little boy and cuddled me to the pillow covering me like hens do their chicks. What a lion I must be for mother could be likened to a brave lioness."

"I remember, last year, before the first light of the day, I appreciated her for mothering us with prayers immediately she notices I am awake at dawn. She would always pray saying 'you'll be this, you'll be that, you'll be these and those' and I'll be saying 'Amin, Amin ma, Amin and Amin ma...'. The following dawn because I appreciated her on the last, she'd intensify the prayers. What more do children need than a praying mother, who'd sacrifice anything aiding-wise!"

"You know my mummy taught me how to wear brassiere! Back from school on a short break. I told her our COSTUME DAY was coming on resumption and I wanted to do crazy that day and thus I'll need her wears. She laughed out loud and said, 'well, son that is not a problem. Do you need brassiere too,' I said yes of cause. She stood and opened her cupboard and picked me a black one and she taught me how to wear it immediately. What a ma!"

"You'd know back in those good old days, mama would wake me up from sleep and I'll go and be making paper planes but now, if she'd do that, it's to go and make money."

"Back in those good old days, at times when mum mi goes to the market, she would buy 1 roasted maize  cos that was all she would afford. She would call one of us to go and fetch a knife, we would all be dancing from within cos mum has bought something that can be divided for us all to eat. She will cut the 1 roasted maize into 5 different places, 1 for her and the rest for each of us. That is one of her ways of teaching us contentment. That is why we will never be thieves in life no matter what and parents can vouch for us anywhere."

"There's something funny my elder sister told me about our thoughtful mother lately, she told me mummy would send someone to deliver raw rice for instance, to her when she was away and she would wrap the money inside nylon and bury it inside the raw rice so that the messenger would not thief it or so. This was because there was no mobile phone then in the 90's, there were postal mail and land phone though. So, when she less expects it, as she would want to draw cups of rice to cook again, she would draw the money alongside wow!"

"Well, this is going to irritate you. Sorry but don't worry!
Mama was not that everytime funky as you'd be thinking now. She could be a Mrs No Nonsense even for us her children on purpose to teach discipline.
Back when I was 6 or 7 years old, I began feeling to use the toilet on my way back home from school, SAINT MURUMBER NURSERY & PRIMARY SCHOOL LAGERE, ILE-IFE. I was sweathing profusely and was crying all of a sudden. I had to begin running down home to do just that first.
When I got home I called her but none responded, no one was home. But suddenly, the shit came out puff... thick right in the passage, could not hold it in any longer. I knew mother would kill me for any reason that made me do that first before she would want to hear any story that lead to that, to be on safe side and not to suffer twice, I packed the shit with my hands immediately as thick and hot as it be as she might already be on the stairs upstairs. I cleaned the rest with a rag.
When she was back she said "Emma, something is smelling in the passage there like shit abi!" I looked away and responded otherwise."

"Till I got to my year 3 on campus when they began to introduce to us Stylistics, I didn't know my mother has been a Stylistician ever since. Mummy is great at FOREGROUNDING a lot. She will on purpose write the list of what she needs us to buy at the market place as big and repeatedly emboldened as possible even for the blind to read. Why? So that you'd not come back and be gibbering "I forgot to buy this or that."

"[Laughing...] My immediate elder sister and brother in ascension would 'kill' me for this:
You both remember then in Ile-Ife when mum would start flogging you in the midnight from sleep and you will be screaming n' shouting "yeh, yeh, e jor, e jor, mummy e jor" right? I caused it. You want to know what I told her during the day? Come and ask me."

Thanks for reading.

My mother trades goods that mostly kids buy. She has been doing this as far back as when I was still milking (I suppose).

She has a legacy in this business which has just occurred to me it is unique. Right from the time I have known her has my mother and understood her trading business system, I have known her PLACING PRICES OF GOODS ON THE GOODS THEMSELVES. The goods could be COWBELL SATCHET, BISCUITS and all that. As long as they could be written on, she would take her time to write on them the prices, BOLD.

I believe even maybe without her knowing it, unconsciously, she knows there are some goods whose prices always fluctuate here. So, it could be 20 Naira today and next week, it is 25 Naira. To avoid confusion on her side and that of the buyers', she would use MARKER to write the prices on them as long as they keep fluctuating. So, a buyer would know and pay without any unnecessary bargaining which might make her 'vex' for such a buyer.  

With that system, even when she is unavailable in person to sell, anyone could sell for her without selling lower or higher than the actual price.

This is her own legacy in her business. Yes! This is one of the things she is known for. When she is not around to sell by herself and she forgets to write the prices, I would complain that it is unlike her because it is not her legacy business-wise.

This attribute of my ma could be integrated to our every-day lifestyle I guess, that we should always remember the necessity of good LEGACY and act one.

It is advisable to have a legacy which people would crave to emulate and/ or practise even in your absence.

Let's say you are 'A' -- let's say you are not there, be a kind of 'A' who would make people to gather together, and inquire '''A' is not around, what could 'A' have done, say or posit in this situation?'' And there would be suggestions based on your legacy when you were around.

Nothing more is as beautiful in life than being remembered for a good legacy (thing) in your absence.

This is another lesson mom has taught me, not my lecturer now. So, I should say thank you mom and much love to mom.

Build something peculiarly awesome to you and to you alone and make the world to remember it until the world ends.

Oh rejoice Ay, rejoice for
blessings fill the skies painting 'em blue and pink
As the hands of winds wave goodbye hash weather for you
As kind kings and queens have come to pay you homage
With packs of gifts in their diamond carts
Gifts from the king of kings and Lord of lords
Gifts of joy and happiness
Of long life without one strife
Of monies and sweet memories
And then another gifts in one letter sealed
Break the seal as it is full of peace AY mide
Rejoice and dance like never before
Thrust your behind forwards and backwards like never before
Thanks for being there like never before
Thanks for caring like never before
Thank your parent[s] for their services like never before
Happy birthday happy lovely fine girl, o ya dance ya photos with your pinafore!
