THE LAST SPADE OF SAND



Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies
A picturesque wording of imaginations
The embodiment of imagery and hope

Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies
Her artistic fingers massage your soul
She toys with the words till you feel her joy
 
Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies
The last spade of sand, a padlock to her memories
She lay in the arms of peace, enjoying it cuddles and tickles

Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies.
She tapped the sweet juice of our minds
Smoked out the creativity in our fingers

Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies
The words penned,
The numen of letteric rhythm from
A walk to the market, a stroll by the seaside
The honking, the shouts, the giggles and chuckles
The mourn, and scolds.
An inspiration to her interior décor

Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies
So we gather to celebrate the legend
Not to mourn but to share heroic.
Not to cry but to ply ourselves with the fingerprints
That never fades.
Death is far, dirges are numb
The writer never dies.


In memory of Maya Angelou
