With you I grow and glow — Linturi’s romantic poem to Kitany

Meru Senator Mithika Linturi and former Chief of Staff in the DP’s office Marianne Kitany’s divorce case has exposed a number of things in recent days.

While the couple have dressed down one another in court with some damning claims, there have been beautiful moments too.

On Wednesday, Kitany produced ‘documentary’ evidence in form of a poem to prove that she was indeed married to Linturi.


She alleged that Linturi composed a poem for her during her birthday, also showing slideshow images that were taken during the ceremony.

In the poem, Linturi describes Kitany as ‘his everything’, referring to her as an angel who resides on earth.

Here is the poem:

To Marianne,

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, And a video is worth a thousand pictures,

So here is your thousand pictures. Every time I set my eyes on you, a part of me softens

You are my love, you are my world, you are my everything.

With you, I grow and glow, With you, I survive and thrive, With you, I live and dive.

Knowing that you will always be my side. Each day I thank the Lord, for the angel he sent me,

My angel is not up in the sky or out in the world. They are right there with me, they are right there in my heart. That angel is you.

On this special day, I would like to wish you the best. As I always do each and every day.

Happy Birthday My love,
