MY OWN WISH

(For Patricia)

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

If I could see you again
If only I could see you again
And hear your voice once more
Then I'd not die again
I'd live for ever more
That's my most fervent wish
My most ardent prayer.


You may think I'm vain
But what do I stand to gain
Unless I rise and come to the fore
As Vice Principal, I'm quite sane
But never will I gore
If anything, I'll fish
So that in the end I can be God's key player.
