Baby Coo Coo Poem
So mild and tender
Looking lovely and innocent
Oblivious of life hardship
You are welcome to the world of humans
Crying on the day you were born
A natural preparation
Towards life’s critical suffering
Created by the evil ones
Mother smiling with tearful eyes
People celebrating and jubilating
Expecting their plates of Jollof
Certainly, it was a day of fun
The lucky ones were born into wealth
Others born without a silver spoon
Though we share a common origin
Our destinies are divergent
Finally, baby You was laughing
Bursting out at every touch
A life everyone wishes for
Where only Coo Coo could be said
