Ongoing birthday celebrations and best wishes for Rihanna our outstanding Bajan Icon!

 
By Stanley Collymore

You're an officially declared by
a statute of Government and
similarly universally, openly
accepted by us Bajans independently:
at home and globally as actually one
of our thoroughly distinguished, and
rather proudly, officially designated,
National Heroes who discernibly as
well as impeccably, unquestionably
have lived up to the high standards
that we Bajans most commendably
distinctly adhere to! And therefore
with Barbados in the full company
of our proud Bajans having simply
rather marvelously and effectively
appropriately, publicly celebrated,
your darling birthday, on Tuesday
the 20th February 2024! Naturally
a literal measure, of your intrinsic
worth and most crucially the true
value of yourself that this poem is  
written on your rather special day  
but very consciously posted after  
these actual celebrations as part  
of the ongoing tribute, and rather  
heartfelt congratulations actually  
coming you lovely way Rihanna!

Author's Remarks:
As we Bajans lovingly and accordingly acceptingly say to each other - You're one uh we! And always will be. And, as well, here's to many more distinctively wonderful birthdays in the fire!  
 
God Bless Our National Hero, Rihanna!
