When You Remember Me Poem by Adeosun Olamide

When You Remember Me



I remember you
When I walk the orchard
And the birds hum
I remember you

I remember you
When the stars are out
And the breeze come a swirl
I remember you

I remember you
When the rain pours
And my blanket can’t warm
I think only of Ye

The remembrances comes too
When breeze smite my door
And my ears catch a scream

And it comes again still
When I see a hand move
Or when bottle come gaze
I think first of Ye


I hope you remember me too
When you hear creak of laughter
Or when an aroma engulfs your nostril
I hope you remember me- then

I hope your remembrance
When you are tired
And your body hungers a massage
I hope you remember me

I hope you remember me too
When you clean your mess
And the silences abounds
I hope ye think first of me

But what is hope in a windup?
For I know when you remember me-

It is when you see fire
And when a knife comes in your stare
It is when you clamor purge
And your wheeler snores
It is when you see a fly
When it- on your lip- hovers
You remember me
It is when you see in sky- a bird
And when your gaze is on the stairs
It is then you remember me
Yet hope in a windup can
Remember me before you turned me
