It amazing how we see people making such contribution depart. yet some of us still get lost in some personal beliefs.
That Farewell
As the daylight quickly faded into that of the night
Darkness has so easily absorbed that one bright light
So as a year, a decade passed by something like a zoom
To many of us it likes time which has passed so soon.
There have been men and women too of such great stature
How much their lives and living have been to us such a treasure
But they too have gone after making such a sterling contribution
Because they too have to go down like the setting of the sun
There have been person of such great inventive ability
Who used the prowess to be such a success financially?
How they were able to amass a fortune and start a corporation
But they after a time have to make way, of their little session
It’s amazing how people still get into some form of compartmentalization
Relating to each other, through race, profession creating that stratification
Imaging setting all those barriers, as a manner to differentiate
When they know that someday they will all share the same fate.
Even though we notice these things happen around us daily
The sort of behavior seems to have a form of continuity
Because that evidence is now so blatantly evidently
That we are all victims of what was taught us culturally
Perhaps it is time that we should all understand
That there is no different fate slotted for every man
Even though some of us may remain longer on life’s stage
That time will come when that scene will reach the final page,
