ODE: "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO AUTHOR NISHANT" BY STRIDA PLATFORM (AJAKAYE, GEE-PEN & ZIM)

Happy birthday to Author Nishant Vaidya,

a classic pen from India,

no matter how your legs are far

from the soil of Nigeria,

we see you taking the family of STRIDA higher.

Welcome, esteemed guest of honor bright,

Your presence lights the way, a guiding light.

With accolades and praise, we celebrate your name,

A shining star, your achievements earn their claim.

Welcome to your glorious day once again,

The Almighty shall erase your pain

and transform it to a palace of gain,

like the value of rain, you shall reign.

In the garden of words, your wisdom blooms,

A beacon of light that dispels all glooms.

May your pen weave magic, bold and bright,

Painting dreams in the canvas of night.

Happy Birthday, Nishant, a soul of endless might!
