IJE UWA (THIS LIFE!)

Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke


Notice of absence from Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
I will surely get back to you when I come online.

 

Darkness has visited
the land of Dorowa,
In a broad day light,
Teeths and lips 
Are at war with each other. 

What a world of nothingness! 
Visitors we are, 
One by one, 
We take the exit route. 

The news filters 
From mouths to ears 
Indeed, you have taken 
a bow, 
Accident the transitive vehicle. 

At Sirjik Pharmacy, 
Our last point of farewell 
That was a month ago, 
Who knows tomorrow? 

In pain, I pen this tribute, 
To a great hero like you 
Whose medical wits, 
Have saved many from death. 

Ga' nko oma dike, 
This is the road of all mortals 
No one escapes it, 
Good Night sir.
