Painful Exodus Poem by Bonaventure Onuabuchi

Painful Exodus

Rating: 4.0


The wind whirls, the earth whines in slough of despair.
And the sky's smile has been dethroned,
Fogs and gloomy cloud rulling!
The sun, the moon, the stars -all shrouded in this darkness..
Heaven losts her cheerfulness, the world her repose.
.
A plenitude of grief overwhelmes the kingdom.
Tears out of home trundle in sheer boredom.
Every mug shuts its gate against beam and animation.
And the market square takes on a forlon garment.
Though it seems like heaven will soon cry
But the trees know the solemnities is beyond the expection of rain-
They join in the motionless sulleness.
.
Oh, in our bleak hope; the futility of mourning,
We plea' thee whose bosom is every soul's craving at rest-
Relieve the thorns in every bereaveds' heart,
And let heaven to affirm the quest of the departed souls.
