Like a subtle breeze, death took him.
But before then, he was there when the birds chirped at Bara
He was in sync with the earth at Ife
The King at Idoko smiled at his joke
“Tired” respected him for not being tired
While “past” diggers craved for the aroma of his food
Still, he wasn’t tired to satiate our tongue or recover what was lost
It was hot and humid on the day we drove from Ibadan to Eredo
Trailers passed, traffic loomed, hooligans lurk in the bushes, yet you were unscathed
But when the breeze of “life” blew, your ears could no longer hear the birds chirp
Neither do the earth feel the handling of thy trowel
Pots ceased to be darker by his dexterity
He now lives on as a PARAGON in our hearts
Rest on “Erin”
Sunre Adigun
We will miss you Olusegun Moyib
