Rest In Peace Good Freind....

You were the first kind face I met
ya were a mother a grandmother and not just a neighbour
ya were there for me whenever and however
ya were the glu binding all the family
the whole neighbourhood and sometimes all the colony
ya were the wife who stood beside the man you loved
when you walked out of your door in that grace
would leave many in envy
would be there for everyone everyday
you were a mother a wife and so much and so great
it was only a fall that brought out all the sorrow we feel today
it was all to tell us that ya wont be for long with us that day
matter of months and days
and i lost the precious sight of you
i miss you for myself
i miss you for my girl
i miss you for your family
i miss you for what you were
i wish wishes could come true
and i could see you walk out of your door again
i leave my lights on deliberately
in a hope that you would call to ask me about my girl
i turn to your garden in a hope
that you would appear from behind some rose
but no matter how much i wish
the truth is........
that ya are at peace

Rest in peace good friend …..stay at peace!!!

Rest in peace Good friend...God Bless...xxx)
