BREAKFAST
He walked into the board room
With the smile of one who had just won a conquest
It was his beauty that stuck me
And the elagance with which he strolled to my table
Stretched out his right hand, which exposed his beautiful fingers
And for a second, I forgot which hand to hand out to him
J.F A…. John Femi Akinpelu
Yes. It’s nice to meet you John was all I managed to say
And the rest, they says, is history.
Today, he strolled out of my life the same way he strolled in
This time, he held his shoulder high like one who had just won another conquest
And maybe he did.
It was only now I took time to think on his initials.
J. F… Akinpelu
John Femi Akinpelu
He just had to be Femi.
