The Battle Ends; Victory Begins -A Tribute To Speaker Koon By F. Shelton Gonkerwon Contact: (+231) 775988128

The long running battle ends

And victory eventually begins

The victory surfaced at noon

It’s a victory for Richard Koon

It’s a victory to disperse doom

It’s a victory for all in the room

It’s a victory that came very soon

The victory came under the smiling moon

The victory came for democracy to boom

The victory came as the people expected

The victory came and was highly accepted

The victory came and was never neglected

The victory came and it’s sincerely respected

The victory came; and the storm loses horns

The victory came and drove away the ghost

The victory came and there’s peaceful toast

The victory came; there’s plenty corn to roast

The battle ends; victory begins!!

Victory begins with Koon as speaker

He’s to speak on the legislative floor

He’s to speak for all including the poor

He’s to speak and no devil will ever roar

He’s to speak and open opportunity doors

He’s to speak and let peace peacefully flow

He’s to speak and let peace fruitfully grow

He’s to speak and set the pace for the race

He’s to speak and let calm be in every place

He’s to speak to protect legislative grace 

He’s to equally serve the legislative wine

He’s to keep the legislature in proper line

He’s to terminate all concealing monsters

He’s to let the legislature crow like a rooster

He’s to make the legislature a place of fame

He’s to make the house strong in the game

The battle ends; the speaker rises!!

He’s scholarly called Accounting Koon

He’s to handle the sacred legislative spoon

He’s to carefully protect the legislative power

He’s to ensure there’s normal legislative hours

He hails from the region called South East

He’s to supervise existing legislative feasts

He’s to ensure that there’s no legislative beast

He’s to ensure the law protects even the least

He’s to carefully manage the legislative bread

He’s to ensure the legislature is never dead

He’s to ensure laws are made in higher grade

He’s to ensure the legislature stands very tall

He’s to ensure there’s always peace in the hall

He’s to ensure the HoR is never made small

The battle ends; speaker is enthroned

He’s scholarly called Accounting Koon

His victory came with the month of May

His victory came to pave the desired way

His victory appeared during the broad day

His victory came in the wake of the calm rain

His victory came to let the nation always gain

His victory came to wipe out the chronic pain

His victory came to curb the legislative sins

His victory came through legislative quorum

His victory is highly cherished by public forum

Victory for Accounting Koon!!

It’s a victory that’s felt in every room

It’s a victory that brings joy to the people

It’s a victory that broke the last checkpoint

It’s a victory that broke the camel’s back

It’s a victory that eventually broke the tide

It’s a victory that’s to bring a peaceful ride

It’s a victory that’ll bring joy to every side

Victory at last! peace at last!!

Victory at last; the people finally win

Victory at last; the law finally takes the day

Victory at last; democracy has its final say

Victory for the people; victory for peace

Victory for the people; victory for growth

The night has fallen; the light has risen

Enemies have fallen; remedies have risen

The pus is out; healing begins for the sore!!
