Await Your Call Daddy- Media Practitioner, Abike’s One Year Remembrance Poem For Her Father, Richard Akintuyi
Daddy,
It’s been a year.
Time flies
Hearts remain heavy
Tears still drop
Non stop
Time hasn’t healed
The wounds
Your death brought
To me
And siblings
And family
And relatives
Your death
Was our loss
Our grieves
Take no leaves
Away from us
Our cords broke
All bare
No holds
Sleep well still
in your rest
Await your call
At the sound of the trump.
