Ho! Why Thy Hasty Elapse Poem by Abdulrasaq Akingbo Okanlambe

Ho! Why Thy Hasty Elapse



Who trance that life is passing by?
Such tongue is accurate,
Thou had left us in the rear
I was astonished why we
all blind to see one another.

Thou have done us thus:
Move forward is tragedy
Flash back is a great intricacy.
They have overwhelm us
I mean they forgot,
Those with cleric

They did not keep in mind
Those with foster
But not judge our side
And deprived everything of us.

I heard a voice says 'we shall head off'
Another says 'we will all fly by night'
both nun, nurse.
Life is a field where triumph does not dwell
But everyone must welcome his fate.
O' you have passed by.
