Obama: A Poem By Tunde Oseni

President Barack Obama

Tunde Oseni

The man who has changed the world

The change is not just about the post

The change for hope that we all can share

The change in our thought that we can be what we dream

That is what Barack Obama has brought to us

Americans were wise enough

Americans uploaded the face of change

Amidst worldwide applause

And it matters less if midterm elections went roundabout

Obama is not just a man

Obama is not just a politician

Obama is actually an idea

Of what we can do if we have faith and hope

With ‘yes, we can’

Obama inspired the world

With ‘yes, we can’

Obama made millions shed tears of joy

Obama phenomenon has come to stay

Obama philosophy will never go astray

Obama the idea will never go away

Obama indeed has come to show the way
