Delfin

Delfin Free Verse SATURDAY, May 28 2022 When in this world you bade adieu Leaving your siblings and family in sorrow But here am i now, paying my last respect to you Eleven years we haven't seen each other Now I see you, but can see me no more As I gaze at you inside that fancy casket Tears roll back in my face Delfin at age 71 For me you're still very young There are still many things to do Yes, many things to do that to God we offer I still remember when we were together young Living in that dusty town called Nampicuan Many escapades we have done That made our parents intensely and extremely mad Those are adventurous actions and capriccios A part and parcel of being lad’s didos A modern James Dean in the streets But became mellow in your old age. Your teen-age caper and knavery Are all things to remember It always remain in my heart and mind A knocker of my memory in case oblivion prevails. Like your Big Brother Tito Who left us 30 years ago Won't forget when we we’re all growing up Attending worship services and playing with friends. Now you are like him Resting in peace, waiting for Christ's second coming On that Day we all be together again In the New Jerusalem with our parents as well You are so blessed my Dear Brother You can not make any kind of blunder again While we are still in this crooked and vile world Fighting for our faith, defending for our fate
