That Petal Poem by Rotimi Jaiyesimi
That Petal
The petal stands
It opens up
Bright colours, emitting sweet fragrance
What a beauty
Then suddenly
It drops
It did not wither and never will
For it remains beautiful
Still radiant, still beautiful
In our hearts
Always
We miss you
(In memory of Professor Samuel Adepoju Aluko, February 2012)
