Letter To a Mother

Joy and happiness dance in my beautiful soul As i picked up my companion to write this eulogy, Mother , i love and cherish you more than thousand luxuries An epitome of beauty, pride of savador Citadel of knowledge and wisdom you are Woman of prestigious honour and peace. I speak of your peace and reputation When the air has gone on vacation and The oceans on a journey faraway. You give life to me upon many odds and misery Behold me in your humble arms amidst joy, Tribulation, pains and sorrow yet you complain not. Call on the nightingale to sing melodiously to me When i cry, you cry louder You feasted on decayed food to give me better one Led me along an arduous path of healing and wholeness. I sing of your joy and love among the heartless hyenas in the wild wood You never leave me behind the stormy weather yet The dimples on your cheek remind me of hope and success. I adore you mother, queen of the east Priceless gift of nature. Nwanyibuife your native name remain me of woman value I am on the other side of the world To bring back the lost glories to your home. Cry no more for the sake of your beauty Your unfaded skin which remind me of African beauty. I love you mother beyond human explanation. YOUR SON VINCENT
