Tribute to the late Abdul Fatawu Seidu, a student of KNUST who lost his life at the 2014 GUSA games at UCC.
In the splendor of that day
My heart was elatedly singing
The fragrance of sweet African soil
Blew across my olfactory apparatus
Perfect life was the feeling internally
The ocean roared crazily
Then in the twist of perfection
Thunder shattered my joy into pain
My lacrimal glands welled up with tears
Sadness mixed confusion depressed my soul
A stout hearted son of our academic land
Unknotting the knot of wisdom
The brewing was almost done
Waiting to be flavored
Then all spills away
Adieu Adieu Adieu
Our sorrows paddles his canoe
Our tears; the ocean on which he sails
Sailing safely to the land beyond the shore
Where the staging of our souls shall be quiescent
