Epitaph For Julia Wangama
Silence.
Let us remember Julia
Thank you for coming to be with us
Dear Sis, a succulent bud that decorated
our family tree for barely two decades
We cherish the thoughts we have of you
Conversations we shared
Unfinished meals in big plates
Energy to skip a rope all day long
Now, your young yet grey grave
is out there in the lonely yard
provoking sullen clouds whose rain
you will not be able to run away from
In our hearts, you're sheltered still.
