Onyeche John Chinaka Poet Bio

Take a Shot Now

We had no memory 
I know memories 
Are kept in with every 
Shots taken by few or
As family members 
Groups or little children 
Growing up together 
Memories are preserved 
In every shot nicely taken 
Blacks or whites 
Coloured or neutral 
If there was a shot 
Taken from time 
Immemorial then memories 
Would have been preserved 
To the man who never 
Takes a shot and to 
The woman who missed 
A shot taken for memories 
Are kept in every single 
Shot and forever we are 
Reminded of the good old days
