Dear dad 2

Dear dad,



When I was at your bedside, I wept

When the news got to me, I wailed

When reality set in, I whispered

“You will be sorely missed”



Memories of my childhood floods my thought

Snippets of my teen hood flashes to my heart

I smile at the thoughts

“Great dad, great Moses”



How will life be without your jokes?

How do I write my story without you?

I smile at the unending thoughts

“I will keep you in my heart”



Dad, when the angels deliver this mail

I want you to know just this:

The day you left, tears filled the earth but

“Your spirit lives on “



I will carry on your good works

I will tell my generations about you

I will keep you in my heart”

“My one and only Obeki”



Until we meet at Jesus’ feet,

Until we meet to part no more

Until goodnight becomes goodday

Baba Sho, “I will keep you in my heart

Yours truly,



Atolly Konko, 123, Law……
