Motherhood by ajil(m): 6:51am On Nov 24, 2014 |
MOTHERHOOD Thoughtful mind Stormful night Blinded the earth with a shroud Raven black Konwe on a visit to Mortal earth in its Haste to escape The darkened fury Hooted and forgot To shriek Akalamagbo in its Astonishment stiffled A laugh, ceased To laugh Wary of the night Shivering was Igunungun On its eggs Daring the Dark veiled night To the dump-site Went the Hen Hastening her Child's safety Past her flew The Owl -- messenger Of doom Incessant warning Of the impenetrable Night it was hooting Neither right nor left Turned the Hen Thoughtless stormless formless Death in ambush Silently speedily struck As child mother Re-unite In her present Dying state With her present Dying strenght Even in the Dreadful deadly densely Dark night the Soil she scratched Finding food for Her child, her last Very last Mothe'ly rite. |
