PANEGYRIC 'THE ANGEL IN MY MOTHER' BY KOMOLAFE IYABO FAVOUR

(Dedicated to MRS. KOMOLAFE VERONICA OMOLADUN)

Nothing like mother's love,

my first room, 

my mother's womb.

My first restaurant,

my mother's breast is my   feeder,

my first toilet, my mother's laboratory.

My first vehicle, my mother's back,

my first mirror, my mother's smile.

My first love, my best friend, 

my sister, my teacher, my pastor,

Iyami Owon,

my Righteous Orisa...

KOMOLAFE IYABO FAVOUR.

The poet personae appreciates and praises her mother and promises never to leave her because her mother is an unconditional companion.
