She'll Live (In memory of Mrs. Aniagu)A Poem by Geo Lawrence about 3 years ago, my close friend and coursemate lost his mum. Wherever she is now, I want her to know that we still remember her fondly and still pray for her sweet spirit. You'll see her laid to rest Beneath this city's clay. You'll rain a drop and a flow, From the clouds and through
your cheeks. I'll mourn with you like a
howling wolf Her boat will be afloat our
tears. The grief you bear shall tame
my joys By you I’ll stand beside her
mound To say with you some wordless
psalms We'll look to the sky and seek her
soul Among those clouds that hide
the sun. She'll live in you; of this I
know And no more deaths shall cross
her path She'll live, she'll live, and
she’ll live! Amen Amen Amen... © 2020 Geo Lawrence |
