THE MESSENGER OF AUTHORITY




The shuffles for the sky 
Coat froged with must 
Walking stick happing in drops open the earth
His bead trails in streams

His breath a damp sigh over fields that bend to hear his stones 
Each drop is a memory to the community 
An old tale repeated
Falling again and so we do not forget

He mumbles softly most times 
He laughs hoarsely,a down poor against the roof
He leaves behind puddles mirrors for children 
Reminders for grown men before drifting on

An ancient traveler,
Carring the weight of the sky
The great man of wisdom 
May your smiles never fade

May your laughs never cease
The great messenger of our time
I wish i was there to witness your existence
