Earth's girl and Sky's Angel - (Inspired by Susan Amissah)






Dear Whitney,


I'm shattered, scattered on the floor with tears, with heart, with hand and with knee
Eternity was what you said it'll take to break us
Where do I draw strength to go on with the belief now that I'm weak in brake-horse?
...
Now Earth offers you all it's precious hidden jewels as food to eat
Warm Earth offers your coldness some covering - does it know you won't sing to it?

Earth thought it was the only world who listens to you singing
'had no clue sky angels crave you too and envy the world you sing in
Earth is like a mother-hen with nightingale chics and these sky angels are hawks.
Who protects Earth - has it got a rooster, where is its cock?

They couldn't wait for your time so they had to whisk you into that abysmal slumber
Their talons' marks are allover a daily routine you've done times without number -
That now you're steel cold, not a CPR if powered by the sun will bring you back to life?
If the whole of Earth's iron ore were fashioned into the sharpest sword/knife,
It won't scratch the ropes of lure that's pulled you beyond the sky's lens?

The gathering of Earth's best choirs will never out-sing your songs' silence
And as you join others to sing in the skies, we'll forever dance to your echoes
Sadly, to the world's unborn children and future generations there goes..

I take off my art, earth, heart, hut, hurt, and hat (lest I get lost in..)
And lowly give a bow, a salute, a tribute to our Earth's regal Whitney Houston!!

Adieus..xx

Dedicated to Whitney Houston - RIP!
