FATHER~by Philibus K Elisha Elisha

THIS IS A DIRGE I COMPOSED TO IMMORTALIZE MY HUMBLE LATE FATHER,NDE PHILIBUS TIBIN WHO GAVE UP SPIRITEDLY TO STROKE FOUR YEARS AGO TODAY…PLAYING WITH LITTLE KIDS WHO SUDDENLY RUSHED INTO THE HOUSE TO ANNOUNCE OF HIS SHOCKING DEPARTURE… they thought he only fell down… and to rise again….I still look at those kids as CHERUBS sent to bid him a glorious farewell..
We still keep you in memory…father.

FATHER

Now demise
In paradise
Flocking in praise
With all sundry and race
They that have fallen to rise
From dusk through dawn to rise
As they sing their choruses of praise
To the one Almighty of praise.

Lo! Father; up high!
Were it more a wish
To ply your meekly plough
With the plumb and plush
To pace through your peaceful path
The marks on your your epitagh
Which I desire too to etch
On the foot mat of my path.

ELISHA KICHIME PHILIBUS..2016.

REST IN PEACE.

FAMILY.
