.........Her final sleep, a tribute.
Silence….
I had kept water on the fire to boil for you said
You needed a hot bath
Now the water is done
But, you are far gone.
‘ had placed your favorite meal
On the table where you dine
Now the food is here
But you………..there.
You asked that in the new year
I give a call,
Your phone I beep
But...... you had taken to you final sleep.
When, will u take your bath,
When, will you eat your food,
When will you pick my call,
When, will you again smile,
When will you again,
hand me envelope for Christmas
when will you again hold Bamiro
as you laugh to my funny jokes.
When again wil…..…….ah
Life, why feed on death
To give birth?
Sleep well, woman of chaste
Your story a has made yours
A good sleep…..bye mummy Bamiro.
Though not soon, at His feet
We shall meet….
And you cancer, You hope for this note
to be unromantic but in it,
Her smiles are as potent and audible
as ever………SHAME!
