Life Is Scattered

2nd Elergy For Auntie Betty Akinyi Oyugi.
Life is scattered.
By Juno Byron(Junior).

Life is a balloon
Inflated full
A'n given to a baboon
Wherefore? though white as wool

Life is a pot
Resting on her head
With water it got
Cool cold as the dead

Life is a charcoal
Collected in a heap higher
Statued to make a roll
Waiting for th' great fire

Life is a nestling
Inside a nest
Lonely chirping
Built over a river to rest

Life is a live band
Played once enthusiastically
Made of a good brand
If played 'ice- loses weight drastically

Life is a flower
That once blossom
Then dry at summer
In the fields at random

Life is ice cream
Scooped into a warm tongue
And melts dim dim dim as a dream
Whose alarm has rung

Life is scattered
Broken
'nd can not be gathered
Yours,mine,hers,ours,his shan't be remembered.

Assiduous Betty is gone!
Charitable Akinyi is gone!
Benignant Oyugi is gone!
Munificent Betto is no more!

Time is a good friend
We shall plant and harvest
And all shall we'll end
When we believe in Christ.
