We often go through life feeling unappreciated
We need that jolt of life to get us feeling sustained
I have come across a lot of people but this one right here, I maintained
In a world full of selfish humans, she's selfless and her goodness cannot be contained
Her focus is very high and for the very best she aimed
Her beauty burst out like the day and cannot be tamed
For this human, I always run out of words to express, what's to be named?
Effortlessly beautiful and smart...there is nothing to be blamed
Fire and ice...fierceness with beauty...she came out blazing, nothing to be ashamed
Her smile is so infectious and every single jolt of excitement she inflamed
Never seem someone so simple yet so classy
She's tender, loving, delicate and you can even say glassy
But built from within that no stone can shatter, sweetly brassy
A child, a friend, a sister, a mother like no other, never sassy
Her mental strength is out of this world
Throw her to the wolves and she will come back leading the pack
She has been down and out but never looked like what she went through
Life tried to bury her but like a seed, she germinate...growing stronger
Sometimes we go through life feeling overwhelmed forgetting to live
I can't let today to by without celebrating this happy soul
Indeed, go to where you are celebrated rather than tolerated
When the applause isn't loud as you expect from your corner
Cheer yourself on and focus on things that truly matters
Abike...I can't hear the critics over the applause
This one right here is more than enough...a total package
My friend of many years filled with life, no single baggage
Her stocks are on the rise and if she was a fruit, she'd be a fineapple, no damage
Dedicated, loyal, strong, impressive, phenomenal with extra adage
A child like a billion filled with so much sweetness of heart
The span of her hips, the curl of her hair...she's phenomenal
Her smile can melt any heart made of stone as they are from within
Her gentle touch can make you stutter at the mention of your own name
She enjoys act of service and wants nothing to do with fame
Living life with intentionality...to her loyalty is never a game
Nature is jealous that's why the sun shines more, rain falls harder and the wind came
She sets the bar so high even nature wants to compete
Beautiful in and out yet no words can adequately do justice to describe her
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Even if she's feeling not enough, your words alone would make her feel more than enough. It's a beauty to see how you appreciate people close to you and this shows you see the best in people. Your words are seasoned and this is beautiful to read.
Thank you very much. I like people in my circle and it is only natural to go to where you are celebrated rather than where you are tolerated. When people feel appreciated enough, it encourages them to know their good nature isn't taken for granted.
Wow, this is such a beautifully written tribute to an amazing person. Your writing made me realize you hold a deep admiration for Abike. This sounds like a genuine appreciation and love for her kind of person.
Reading this, I'm convinced that Abike is a supergirl, I mean, 'fierceness with beauty,' 'tender, loving, delicate, and... glassy'? That's some next-level praise for one person. Thank you for sharing.
Hahahaha surely a next level praise. Thank you so much, my friend. Yes, I have known her for so many years now and she hasn't changed a bit. She is an amazing person and even while still being married, joggling life and her kids, she's still that amazing human. She's indeed a classy one.
Thanks a lot, my friend.
I wish someone can just write a poem about how good I am too, lol
Well, good people are scare especially in this new world that we are in so if we come across any good person, we should learn how to appreciate them
Indeed, when we come across amazing people we need to appreciate them. Someone once said, "Maybe we meet some good bad people in life so that when we meet the good ones, we can appreciate them".
Don't worry, you will be appreciated and you are always adorable since I have come across you.
It's good to read these words got bleed from your pen and impress our heats, how beautifully you have written this post and paid tribute to this amazing person you have in your life.
Her good nature made the words come out expressly and effortlessly. She's incredibly amazing. Thank you very much, my friend.
Wow!!!!, this poem is full of mind-blowing love words. Abike would indeed be a nice person to merit all these beautiful words. I pray she keeps up with her good ways
She's nice, adorable, impressive, wonderful and all the nicest words you can use. She deserves this and even more. Thank you very much.
Sometimes due to what life brings to us and actually offer us, we always think life has been unfair to us and the truth of the matter is life is bound to be like that. We just need to be strong and fight through no matter what life throw to us, we should not allow it to limit us. We should allow it to make us more stronger and be the better version of ourselves
Life happens and we have to be a better version of ourselves daily...a better person than we were yesterday. We need to know we are more than enough regardless of our shortfalls and do better each time. That's why I am celebrating this awesome human...she's classy and incredibly amazing.
Perfectly true. We just need to be a better version of ourselves as I strongly believe that is one of the key ways we can overcome that which the life might want to throw to us daily. We are more than enough no matter the shortcomings and istead of giving up due to failure, we should be more determined to keep going no matter what may be. We should always have that fighting spirit no matter come may
We are more than enough, no doubt. We need to have that fighting spirit and learn to dream again. It's easier to dream but the effort is working towards it and with God's help, we can be more than we are.
Yea we need to come to that point and if we want to achieve that, we need to work on our mindset and perspectives about things most especially how we view the life. If a lot of us mentality can change, we will achieve much more than we think we are
It's all about the mindset. If we can work on our mentality or ways of seeing things or approaching things, we will solve most of our issues faster and achieve things quicker too.
Perfectly true. Everything is about mindset and perspectives. Only if we can change our mindset. It will really go a long way in helping us in how we view things and change our perspective on handling things.
Wonderful lines.. Your writing style is so unique and captivating. These lines are heart touching "She shines in a world of selflessness and kindness. Her effortless beauty and intelligence give her a captivating presence that combines with charm. I have little bit sense of humor in poetry .These lines makes your poetry exceptional.
Thank you very much and I am glad you spotted that. Thank you for your encouraging words. It means a lot.
This is just great, what a beautiful writing and what a beautiful woman as you show us in this picture you show us, having people like this in our life is a real plus for us in every way because they inspire us and help us to be better as people, may God grant you many more years of life, a hug friend and thank you for sharing ♥
Amen. Thank you very much for this, my friend. She is really a wonderful soul and I am pleased to have her in my corner. She deserves so much appreciation to be honest. Thank you.
I am so glad you have her in your circle of friends, it is a complete blessing that, plus everything she can bring positively in your life, hug friend ♥
Sometimes life gives to us what we don't expect. Even when it seems we have had enough, it keeps giving us more and more. But somehow we keep surviving and keep going and that is to show the strong determination in the heart of men that we don't easily give up
There is indeed to limit for a determined mind. Once we get our mind fixed up, it changes our resilience to issues and how we can overcome them.
Thank you for being here, brother.
Perfectly true. A very determined mind will always go a long way in achieving a lot that we can ever imagine and we must not take it for granted. We must always have a determined heart and mind.
We must always have a determined mind. It sets us apart and make challenges sound or look like water off a duck's back. It makes us know we can overcome challenges.
That's very true. It helps to overcome challenges that comes with it and no matter what life throw to us, we can overcome it and still strong
Your use of words is marvelous. I'm amazed by how well you praised her. I guess Abike is lucky to have someone like you, and vice versa. The way you portrayed her suggests she must be someone of great importance, and all her qualities show how beautiful she is inside and out.
She is surely someone of great importance and I hold her in high esteem. Very true...we are both lucky to have each other. I am grateful God brought her my way over 12 years ago.
Thank you very much for your kind words. It means a lot.
