As time waxes and life wanes,
satisfaction is as the sun
at its horizons of beginning joys:
An exhilarating awareness
that those we've been waiting
for have arrived well and wised:
Ripe seasoned fruits dispersing
seeds of motivating truths.
While admonishing death to be not
proud, elder griots proudly go to death
with resurrection memories:
The poetic word in the hearts and minds
of young poetic caregivers.
