When We Die Poem by Chukwuebuka Adebayo

When We die
Do we again lives on?
when darkness shuts our eye,
Are we in new body- reborn?
...........

When the holy-killer kills___
Where does our spirits- wend
If breathe from our nostrils;
Takes wing and off- ascend?

..........

If it flies away as unroped kites,
If blackness covers a lamp- doused:
Do flesh and soul but reunites?
Atwhere the yellow flame goes?
...........

Must death at all times bereave,
And flash his teeth of conquest?
Is any world lying a-yond grave
Or below after our breast we rest?
.........

Are we only decayed by heat of sun
Turns mushroom, flower at night
Blooming upon wood and bourn
Purple, red, green and White?
.........

When We die,
Do We the thought of life- lose
Or feel for our mourner's cry?
Have We any other chance to choose?
