THANK YOU FOR TWO THOUSAND AND FOURTEEN For the breath and the health Our heart melts in praise For the strength and the wealth How best can we repay For all these things you did Than to be grateful indeed You woke us each morning To enjoy the morning dew Took us through each day’s storm With no cause for mourning So today, we inform you That we are the grateful crew We yearned for the cover of a lover You sent us sweet mother Who quenches our hunger With more than bread and butter We desired a shield In life’s warring field You sent a caring father On whose feathers, we flew high And for those who have lost theirs You mastered their affairs Filled their belly and pockets Thy angels kept them from despair Though our purse was never full The little you dropped saw us through Though we wished to study overseas We study here now You oversee our fees For those who failed to gain admission Into the higher institution Their faith won’t run helter-skelter For they know your plan is better Some are married without children Others have, but can’t train You call kids your heritage Only you can cause this change Some wished for a life partner A gardener of their soul But this year passed them by We are sure you Know why Some prayed for a Job Others, a better paying one Which brings a car and a lodge Some got theirs, others got none For these things you didn’t do We won’t say you failed For the holy book do tell That your time is the best Ebola came, Bird flu returned You, the piper of our tune Who made this year a honeymoon Said it wasn’t our turn To visit the great beyond Death with its hurting thorn Pierced and snatched our loved ones Not once Nor twice But many times In all things, we still give thanks This year was a race Finished with your grace Though we fell on the way We’re are glad to see its last day For these things and many more Our wars which you won Some we saw Others, we knew not For these things, we say thank you. From ur great son Cmrd Ogwalu Robinson. I wish you all a halcyon new year.
