Fallen Pillars Poem by Steven Olugbemi

Fallen Pillars



Our Father who at, in the grave
Hallowed, your dry bones
un-forgotten memories of bravery
remain fresh like morning dew

Your un-sung heroics
lyrics of note and semitone
struggles to make ends meet
your magical rhymic leadings

Just like king David, fought endlessly
setting the pace, an epitome of greatness
I remember, You planted kiss
on my forehead, the first love

You are an Eagle, rare to see
a Lion, daring and calm
a god, once serve his kingdom

though we lost You to death
she can't steal your memories
we hold dare like life

Here, he lies
His braveness, remains. . .
