😭TRIBUTE BY CHILDREN TO MUMMY😭😭: WITH A HEART FULL OF PAIN DO I WRITE😭

If we had known that your demise would be this sudden, we would have drawn nigh our future so you could enjoy the fruit of your labour. Until now, we thought DEATH was news conveyed by newscasters to people who are far from us; but little did we know that DEATH was just like a heavy cloud that hanged on individual houses ready to pour down when its time was due. Fear finally has found ways and means to grip us, as we are coiled in wonder deep inside our shells.

The loss of a sibling is SAD, that of a father is SADDER. But for one to lose a mother is the SADDEST of them all as a whole line of hope (future generation) has been wiped off the surface of the earth. How do we tell our story when you (mummy) the story teller isn't around to guide us through the various parts of it? It feels as though you have left us to fend for ourselves in this strange world. How is our path assured off dangers if you arent there to mark the right spots for us to follow. On this day, we cry our hearts out to the world, for we have lost a vital team player, a coach, a mentor and above all a mother who is to mould, shape and prepare us towards the future. We your children, leave you with nothing but this piece of poem. Enjoy it if your journey ever becomes a boring one along the way...

ONE LAST TIME

( Synopsis- This poem is imaginative but many can relate to it as it sheds light on the loss of a loved one and how you wish you could get that one moment of time to say or do all that u wish to say and do with them. Death is an embarkable journey for all and much respect to those who have lost their loved ones one way or the other).
JUST before you wave at me for the last time, i want us to reminisce about the good times we shared; the ones that made us cry as well as the ugly ones that kept us awake on our beds for hours. Yes! let's remember them all.
I know you would have loved to stay with me forever but when duty calls, you DARE not decline. I wish i could get a glimpse of where you are going, even if its for a brief time so i know where to start my search from in case i also find myself there in my course of wander. You have been a good friend, lover and a soulmate which to me is more than what anyone would avail themselves to be. Soon, i know you will head home; a place the mortal man cannot dwell. At least not with cowries or pearls.

One last time is all i require from you. A time to live again life from scratch to our present day. Making every memory fresh and green in our minds. If this life had any second chances, i would be honoured to relive it with you ONE LAST TIME.

In the end, we are consoled with the passage (Job 14:5) which says "SINCE HIS DAYS ARE DETERMINED, THE NUMBER OF HIS MONTHS IS WITH YOU; YOU HAVE APPOINTED HIS LIMITS, SO THAT HE CANNOT PASS". We know you are at peace wherever you are in the bosom of Abraham. Till we meet again where you are, we say "KOS3, KOS3 NE )BR3 A WAB3BR3 WO ASAASE YI SO"🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😭
