A requiescat for Chibuzor Onuike...

Suddenly the birds stopped singing
And the Elders are now gathering
For a dream, once again, will never be fulfilled
Like a leaf of time that will never fall
 
No consolation is ever enough
When a farmers effort is destroyed
unless his barrel he raises, and shatters the enemy
Words will be useless like a suitor is to a bride
If the enemy is unconquerable
 
  Dust to dust, they say
  Our memories to..........
 
The earth is grieved
But the heaven is consoled
For the Creator has a reason
 
Adieu, Lucky fellow, for finally
You have found that peace:
Which eludes even the bravest of MEN
 
   Peace like a STILL gushing water
 
Rest in it like you were never born
 
REST THEE WELL111
