Poem
Many years ago before I became a man
When i was just a boy having his fun
I had a grandmother whom i thought would never die
She would sit outside her house as I played by

She was tall and jolly and I was fond of her
She died one day and now she is beyond the moon and far
Things I never told her as a boy, I would like to tell her now
I know am crazy, but I hope she is listening somehow

Thanks grandma for all those warm and tasty meals
Had your house been a restaurant, I still wouldn’t afford the bills
Taking care of me while my mother was away
I would give anything just to be with you one more day

Curling by your fireplace, listening to stories and uploading memories
Those were my happiest days, where I knew little or no worries
Helping you gather the chicken, rewarding me with a cup of porridge
I feel tears in my eyes now, as I turn back the page to that age

After you were gone I grew up fast, not sure where time went
The days ahead would be the opposite of the time you and i spent
I have been on the highway to nowhere, not sure how to get there
My will to go on is worn out and I have no spare

Life is a commercial puzzle of which they give you no clue
Grandma, if you were here, you would hate this world too 
It’s hard enough being a man, let alone somebody’s husband
Women today have no respect, and I hold no title to a land

Strong drink is all I have to remind me how to smile
But I can never drink enough to carry me further an extra mile
I am always pushed in the same corner every year round
I have nothing to write home about, nothing to make you proud

It’s not easy dear grandma, to have a heart full of dreams
Yet watch helplessly, as the long winding road ahead dims
To speak but have no listener, to sing and have no audience
Life has been a maddening affair, down this God-forsaken ambiance 

You were a silver-haired woman when you died, me just a kid 
But I don’t know if I will manage, to live as long as you did
For am tired and am thinking about joining you soon
I know its much better where you are, beyond that silver moon
