Goodbye To Sorrow,Welcome To 'MorrowA Poem by Echezonachukwu Nduka
Goodbye to sorrow,welcome
to 'morrow For thine dooms day brought great toil So,from eternal source of joy we borrow Our penchant for peace on our soil. We bade farewell to your long servitude Which kept us all on all our toes Thus,changing our age-long preserved attitiude For you,we drank the cup of our foes. Now on our faces,tears of joy roll They wash away all clear sinister marks Which you embedded to play your role Thus,we carried our sorrows in huge sacks. What manner of evil lay in your mind? That for all men so mighty and brave; To us you sent your sorrow to find And they sought to send us to our graves. Now,my heart shall be peaceful forever For we now bade goodbye to your sorrow And thus we welcome a blissful 'morrow Which shall calm our minds forever! © 2013 Echezonachukwu Nduka |
