FAREWELL TO A HERO
The day has come again
Did we longed for this day?
It snailed towards us
Bringing an end
To decades of Barakah
Just yesterday with eagerness
We stetoscoped the sky
Searching for the crescent moon
Sadly we google the sky today
For another ambigous one
You are our hero
Your first decade was a blessing
The fragile heart became robust
Our mosques became flooded
Even our plates metamorphosed
Then your second decade of bliss
The Tashe during the day and night
The Gwauro melody, drums and beats
That brings back old memory
To the senile and doddery mind
Barely do we sleep in your third decade
Hoping to see that night of power
Your odd days were sacred
83 years of worship and even more!
Just for a night!
We are in a dilemma now
To browse the sky for a crescent
That could end your stay days on earth
I guess it is farewell to you
O! Ramadan.
