Something about him
Makes you wonder
His intelligence turns you upside down
His approach to life leaves you speechless
And his vast achievements slides you to bow
His is an Icon but an Enigma
Charlie boy is difficult to understand
His laugh,
A thundering sound
His story,
An iconic element
He is naturally soft but hard outside
He has a tender heart
Cares for others
Like a freedom fighter
Enigma...
'A person or thing that is mysterious or difficult to understand'
You cannot predict Charlie boy
Yet he is generous and kind
He is to the locals a god
To the oppressed a voice
Yet highly controversial
His pet is unusual
A python freaking the weak
His lifestyle is but a biker
Once ran a television show
Talented songwriter and performer
What a might he stands for
Charlie boy the game changer
Known as area father
Because of his mingling with all
Father at sixteen
A taboo but made him
The youngest Grandfather
Maybe not recorded in the Guinness Book
But history will surely preserve this Icon
He is kind and down to earth
An incorrigible affinity to broken wings
He likes to carry people along
Once known your problem
His heart takes compassion of you
What national merit fits this icon
Will the world ever know that he is an influence
Maybe not in this age but when he is gone
He will surely be remembered for his goods
Charlie boy Oputa
Your kind is not two on this planet
You are a puzzle with many pieces
Cracking you is cracking a nutshell
But you will remain an understanding
To those who appreciate you
You are an Icon
