Okpara Dominique

I
He lived like the other boys
Played with what they made toys
The joys of exuberant youth, bubbly clique
He came in the name of Okpara Dominique

II
Modern trends, wireless trains and digital commuters
The times were of computers
Machines of internet, routers surfing button click
Optimistically high termed destiny of Okpara Dominique

III
He, in many possessions was blest
Momentous skills in him lingered vest
Called Chukwuebube by name, best of nick
So doting are the muses of Okpara Dominique

IV
Creator of all good things and existence made
Took him in even better verve as his aid
Whether he laid full in health or wedged sick
Gratefully delivered were the prayers of Okpara Dominique

V
To him his society offered his talents meager
As he strived to earn whatever work came his way eager
Holding on hawker thoughts even limerick
Uncontrollably outpouring from inscriptions of Okpara Dominique



 

VI
Naturally abnormal, sentient were his affiliation choices
Yet at times habitual in producing rapport forces
Atypical wiving friction links, divorces in successions quick
Such were the relationships of Okpara Dominique

VII
His imaginary nightly self-exorcism
Suspecting his ancestry marks connected in mysticism
His psyche’s dais, affinity prayers, revelations and Catholicism lick
The spirit self of Okpara Dominique

VIII
Lucid studies grand in learning much
Every bit of great intelligence or cogent such
Coherent academics notch of commonsensical rick
Were the mental acquisitions of Okpara Dominique

IX
Nature had made an ancient similarity
One that recognition has missed, a rarity
Endowed in chastity and charity union stick
The character of Okpara Dominique  

X
Let this narration all penetrate
Wherever your thoughts of him concentrate
This literate version of recited Dominic
Composed of Okpara Dominique
