Rest On Beloved

For the sun that didn't shine till dusk For the moon that didn't light our paths at dawn To the stars that left our skies blank And to the herder that left the pastures unglazed We cast no blame nor fault upon you We just wish you could be here a little longer A little longer for more memories in our archives Maybe just a little smile to lift our hearts We remeber you today for the efforts made For the immeasurable sacrifices made With pain and yet not wait for the gain We never forgot you Never taken for granted or ungrateful Just to let you know we are here Missing you everyday as we breathe We hold strong and wait for the day of reunion Where we hope to part no more. Rest on our beloved

And I too notice your absence, Olufemi. Time to write some more, friend.
