I Seldom express my emotions and I wrote this for the Ngudu's to marvel and For paps's and mama's heart to console
Though words describe, portray And say a lot about a person You are not just any person Through the 18 years of loud mouth cursing The raucous in the early morning Shady and unpredictable plots Being mischievous and devious Being revengeful then forgetful Disapprovals leading to arguments The cause of the damaged Stellenbosch walls Were the ceaseless and reneged brawls
Through the 18 years of living I feel like I have failed Failed to sum up the words that match you Having them convey and having people understand you But I feel the words do not get you Like a lot of people that do not get you If you knew him the way I do The marvel of being a Ngudu The marvel of knowing him like I do
Lightened my shoulders You lightened my darkness I love you very much like Maya Angelou loves her brother Bailey
Not only is he the Head Boy The light skinned of the family Nor the pretty boy of the family by default He is a Master before kings The doctors verified it on the birth certificate before Qamani Rightfully on his high horse being all high and mighty He is my inspiration He is my motivation The very reason behind my episodes of satisfaction He is the Kid to the Son He is Qamani Kideo Ngudu My twin brother
This poem is originally composed by my nephew 'Songo Ngudu' dedicated to his brother 'Qhamani Ngudu' on his 18th birthday. Happy Birthday Champ #poetry #dedication #brotherhood #family #love
