By Dalton
Kudos to a man of honor!
Ah! My little sight
Don’t trick me ever
For I saw a man of honor
So peaceful and humble
Like an egret or a dove
Before a cheering crowd.
This one of ours that I saw
A poet f time
A visionary educationist
Who by God’s grace
Gave all his life to the struggle
Educating the pupils, educating.
Ah! My little sight
You know who I saw
When he profiled African culture
In his many cultural poems
Starting with Africa
And ending with Africa.
The cheering crowds echoed aloud
Darkness sneaked out ashamed
Over the new dawn that brought day
Contained in the magnificent book
Of powerful memories
“The River Gambia” of sweet talk. Folks,
I dedicate this poem to Mr. Hassan I. Jagne, a veteran educationist who spent all his selfless life serving Gambians as a teacher. Mr. Jagne now 75 years old is also one of the proprietors of Institute for Continuing Education (ICE). The poem is also dedicated to all educators who in one way or the other contributed to our awareness. This includes proprietors of all media outlets including our forums. On a personal note, I encourage each and every one of you to get a copy. The book is a must-read for all.
