Dedication To Our Beloved Grandmother [ korwa ase omochokoro oye, Petronillah Ogoti]
Our grandmother
with that twinkle in her eyes
always there to help you
an angel in disguise

A woman with a heart of gold
the warmest sweetest soul
her love could truly heal
and restore you to a whole

The many stories that she told
with that smile upon her face
made everything worth while
made this world a better place

Her limitless inner strength
and her very determined will
that even managed to cure her
when she was very ill

Always singing songs
while cooking delicious food
whatever she would make
it always tasted good

Her life was never easy
but she took it all with grace
she fought so many battles
in so many different ways

Adored by one and all
in our neighbourhood
for she had a listening ear
and always understood

A pillar for so many
but most of all for me
I wish she could have lived
for all eternity.
Rest in peace Baba Bitutu.
