As I Recall...31st December 1996 Poem by shirani ibrahim

Fairuf's Bday 2nd May 2012

Memories of my dearest brother as I recall.

Richly replays in mind, a melody without a stall.

exchanging words of many a love and hate.

Strengthened the bond made us great mates.

The precious wonders of our childhood joys.

Distance and trials never could destroy.

when lost and weary the days, and I do get frail.

The uncertain days, his strength never did fail….

Now keeps rushing back to my mind to this day.

Forcing a teardropp fall, I painfully wipe it away.

With thoughts of Death, no mercy walks in at any age.

Now gone beyond the world seems an empty stage…

That voice that call was the last, the final goodbye.

Still stunned shocked a pain that never seems to die

Alas the world is but a dream..all that the wealth ever gave,

The conflicts, confusion, the many leads us finally to our grave.
