Happy Birthday, Chika Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

Happy Birthday, Chika
( March …)

If man does not die,
what would the world’s population have been?
A yam that was not planted,
can never reincarnate.

There is no time for reflection,
like on ones birthday.
It has mammoth significance to the person,
but death of the person has to the world.

Ageing is inevitable.

The more we eat,
the more we prepare our fleshes
for the infra-creatures.

As they say, “A word is enough for the wise”.

Happy Birthday, Queen Chikaodinaka!
