NO EULOGY FOR ME

poem by: Kenvil Atkins
Written on Feb 16, 2018

When I am dead I need no eulogy from the living no not I 
I live a simple life in my ignorance because I was taught a lie
My years have been many my love ones are few 
For now I die please don’t you cry 
Remember me when flowers bloom and Robins take to flight
The beauty that surround you remember that’s where I will be  
 That wondering caucus I now shed make me no casket I am dead
Let me fly the blue yonder spread my aches over yonder
To the four winds For I will live again no wonder
When the role is call up yonder No eulogy but thunder
No grief to bear free at last I cross the great divide
For me my Life has no regrets empty I came and empty I go
Many strange faces I do see as my caucus hung on a tree 
They came they claim to see me off the very same please buzz off 
My friends I know they were few my brethren’s like the honey dew 
Remembering All I did my best shout out to North South East and West
