TO KNOW YOUR LOSS AND YOUR GAIN
The lil cherub knows not what she had and lost
In her blissful state of ignorance
She is the reason for her mother's smile
The ruse her mother finds to visit her home
The lil lad knows what it is to adored
His mama was the heart of her home
His and his dad's loss and pain
Diveded and shared yet the void remains
Her parents she lost a sister who shuns
An Auntl who is meanness personified
Work friends that look down on her plight
Leers and let downs her share of life
A mother that treated her son's wife as hers
A father in law that dotes and sees in him
The Son he never had but now his for keeps
Friends that goad him to move on give his carnal urges a vent
A god send in the form of neighbours and friend
Well loved and admired surrounded he is by all that's well
Destiny propels them to converge
On the expressway called now in the route called life
Speed governors arrive as remnants of a marriage gone by
The cherub the silver lining that linger of her closed past
Cheer leaders in neighbours speed breakers in Tai Gomez and Payal
Paradise they both have lost and lived on
Paradise will be found as they fall in love to rise together again.
