BY GLORIA O’KOYE
A Leader who is humble
Is rare to find.
Like a grain of salt
Or a specific star in the galaxies
Beyond our eyes
A Leader would walk amongst their people
Leading to victories
Boosting up morale
Celebrating with the kingdom
That even outsiders can’t distinguish
Since everyone is properly fed.
Their past mistakes
Does not define their prosperous rule
Though enemies will attempt to bring their downfall
Tarnishing any splendour
With deceiving tongues
In the end
Truth will prevail
The Leader’s actions
May be misunderstood
For wisdom isn’t always broadcasted
When patience is tested within the general public
Residents may get agitated
Wanting to rush unfinished plans
True Leadership may go against the favour of the majority
In order to achieve greater achievements
Leaders are given daunting tasks
In order to protect
Leaving not one to be stranded.
Leaders sometimes aren’t on the frontline
Or front pages
They make sure all is well
Watching from the side and the back.
