Nov. 10th: A Special Poem In Memory Of My Darling Husband, Hon (Dr) Barinem, NuBari Kiobel

In this Poem dedicated entirely to Dr Barinem Kiobel, Mrs Kiobel Esther has used ”NOVEMBER TEN” as an acronym to express her love and passion for her late husband who was, among others, killed by hanging by the Nigerian Military Government 17 years ago.

NOVEMBER TEN

Neither the passing years nor events can erase your memory

Only if I could rewind the hand of the clock

Very tempting to wish I could rescue you from death’s claws

Every day my heart daydreams of your return

Memories of your sweet voice comes echoing

But the truth dawns on me the more I think of you

Eternally shall we meet again, not in this cruel world

Rest in peace, my darling, especially on this special day

This day can never be expunged from history

Every generation shall hear of your heroic demise

Neither the passing years nor events can erase your memory

(A special poem in memory of my darling husband, Hon. (Dr.) Barinem Nubari Kiobel)

As Written By Mrs Kiobel Esther.
