So Long, Mother Poem by oliver Samuel Chukwuebuka

So Long, Mother



Peace and war came colliding.
Our joy comes with sorrow.
These days we would struggle for your arising.
Lies covered our mouths with you in burrow.
So long, mother truth.
The clash if the Titans.
Your fighters have succeeded victory.
Your name is now a thorn in torns of tans.
Debauchery and villainousness made your existence a history.
So long, mother probity.
You were abandoned, left alone with solemness.
Your tears too, bring us joyed-sorrows.
We left you ignorantly on search of accused holiness.
In holiness of pride we rode.
So long, mother nature.
War by war with war, all by war.
Jeopardy by jeopardy you have no say.
We've forgotten you soon and we, by war swore.
Our unstable aggression had put you to stay.
So long, mother peace.
Mother will return,
When her offspring long for her.
She will return,
When we remember her.
