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.
