Poetic Tribute to Komla Dumor

*KOMLA THE FREE SOUL*


In the distant horizon

We catch glimpse of your fading face

But still the echoes of your living voice

Spring true and reverberate

Permeating our hearts like the Atumpan

Calling us to an early morning dance

And splashing us like a fresh morning dew

Yes, a tribute to a man who has paid his due



Now, you are free to roam the world freely

And traverse the galaxies

At the Speed of Light

Still shinning as a Black Star

From the Coast of Gold

And our ambassador plenipotentiary

Telling the story of our mother Ghana

Again and again and again…

In the conclave of the Spirits and places

Unknown to mortals.



Rest on…

Live on…

Move on…

And shine on, Free Soul!
