Letter To Mama by poetictwenty(m): 1:59pm On Jan 12, 2020
I know the stars will fall at my feet someday.
The rain will oneday give way for sunshine.
Our drenched body's will someday dry up
When the future becomes today.


I can see the clouds gathering,
Hugging each other before it drops like rain-
A rain that will wash away the pains of yesteryears,
Before leaving us with a happy ending.


I won't forget you when I bid farewell to tomorrow.
For You're inscribed in each page of my heart.
You're like a rose planted in the garden of my life.
A rose that grew strong in a soil covered by weed of sorrow.



Countless times, I saw when you stood on you knees,-
While knocking on heavens gate for my sake.
Even when it seem the door was never opening.
But you won't just give up because of me.




Now, The sun has risen, signifying the ends of those horrible nights.
Paint your face with smiles dear Mama,
Move your feet for joy.
For the night has given way for a day so bright.

What has happened to us
'Us' of this generation

You will hardly see anyone commenting and commending the write
But one irrelevant post will get so much comments

The poesy is just on point, neatly arranged, the stanza just dope

Bjsrrut why is it like that?
the larger part of the blame clearly falls on the mod,no encouragement at all,poems not pushed to the front page. I read poetictwenty works,and you see FP Worthy material, same as scarphase..we don't encourage each other also,people rarely comment on poem.I don't wanna talk about this anymore. I do what I do because I derive happiness from it,not because of FP nor nairaland fame

I'll write this in a beautiful card for her
