last conversation with mum

Last conversation with mum!

Mum:let me tell you a story my son...
There's once a mighty king , 
so powerful,
he was giant and feared by all,
lots of battles he won
 killing and feasting for his success in his kingdom then
 he was feared by all,
  to the extent death was just like something people fear less to him
he doesn't fear,
i won't die he always says
But his reign wasn't for long,
 Death knocked on his door,
He kicked the bucket.
 Is empire crushed to ground
His legacy wiped from existence.
plain truth my dear she said
No matter how powerful we are death will come knocking one day
 we are just a prey waiting to be quarried by death.
So I won't be here for long that I want you to know,
 I want to tell you something important
Dele:what's that mum and what do you mean? .
Mum:am aging, death is knocking on my door,
 I hope and pray you find your means dele mi...
 When I travel to the land of my ancestors
 I want you to lay my remains (ashes) on a mountain in whatever you put it,
Open the jar and let the wind blow me into the thin air..
Dele:but why mum? .
cause with this, 
I will forever have the opportunity to be with you, Watching over you,
You will feel me every seconds of your life,
Cause you can't do without inhaling me in,
And also you can't do without talking to me when you are bored,
 I will remain just like your shadow, fear not delemi cause I will be by your side everytime
 Following you everywhere like your shadow she said ...
Dont i cried.. 😢

But her soul has traveled to valhalla
She has gone to dine and feast with the gods,
Bye mum I cried,
To me this was her dying wish,
 one I must not fail to make  a reality 😭
