It’s
been
one
year
Still
One
year
ago,
the
evening
turned
so
cold
The
day

the
streets
Israel
Omemgboji,
the
name
that
stood
for
truth
You
guided
us
with
wisdom
from
our
earliest
You
were
the
mentor,
the
teacher,
and
Even
when
the
road
was
dark,
you
Not
just
for
your
children,
but
for
all
who
came
your
you
more
than
words
can
Oh,
Papa
Bishop,
my
Nkem,
my
If
only
you
could
stay
here
A
big
vacuum
left,
a
space
no
one
can
fill
are
yearning,
and
the
room
is
standing
still
We
miss
your
presence,
your
love,
your
guiding
Rest
now
with
the
Father
and
love,
the
legacy
you
gave
A
heart
so
honest,
so
steady
and
so
brave
You
were
the
Apostle,
the
Bishop,
and
the
friend
of
a
life
that
doesn't
We
prayed
for
just
a
little
longer
But
the
heavens
opened
up,
and
there
you
did
abide

your
Inside
our
hearts,
you
keep
the
burning
flame.
Grandfather,
godfather,
husband
We
feel
the
weight
of
missing
you
But
we
find
the
peace
you
taught
us
how
Your
memory
is
worth
far
more
than
finest
gold.
Oh,
Papa
Bishop,
my
Nkem,
If
only
you
could
stay
here
A
big
vacuum
left,
a
space
no
one
can
fill
are
yearning,
and
the
room
is

We
miss
your
presence,
your
love,
your
guiding
Rest
now
with
the
Father
in
that
Rest
well,
Papa.
We
love
you
Until
we
meet
again.
