The Fallen Corps Poem by Bamisaye Adeniran

Together we answered the clarion call
Hungry and eager to serve our fatherland
The one our heroes past bought for us
But along the way, they fell.

With patriotism and zeal wanting to serve
Carrying on the legacy of our heroes past
But suddenly they’ve been taken away
Tears rent my eyes and chicks.

My white round dotted balls
Suddenly have decamped to the red community
Heaven please wipe my tears away
Can’t hold back these sorrowful tears.

My heart is weak
All for the untimely fallen corps
Heaven please accept their souls and grant them peaceful rest.
May their souls rest in peace.
