Goodbye To Old Mama Poem by adedayo michael

I heard the words 'the deed is done'
My tender heart crumble and becomes heavy.
She was wrapped in that sorrowful garment
And six foot were measured as her new home
Her new home where she would live.
People wailed and cried and rolled in their tears
But nothing could be done to repair the damages done.
We lost her to the force we cannot stop
That force that will bind us all
Either rich or poor, wise or foolish
That force shall surely bind together.
I was sad as the thought of her
Forever gone and non-existing
It makes me cry.
She was that loving mother
That caring mother to us all.
And this day is branded in me
This date August 8th,2004
She left us without the fruit she sows.
The world is dark to her now
This light we see is no longer hers
She had left forever and ever
And NEVER to be seen again
And our tears she can't hear
And all our wailing are useless.
All I got to say is goodbye.
