A PRAYER

I bow down before you, Almighty

For presenting me this fantastic life.

I prostrate before you, Almighty

To grant me a few more full moon nights.

I wish a few more days with my friends

As I was always jovial with them.

I remember those frenetic days

When we were clamouring like anything.

I failed to learn that my cells were crushing

When you were teaching about Eukaryotes, my Teacher.

I shall hope recuperating one day when you

Pray with your candles of selflessness, my Sister

I would be a destitute in the heaven

As all my love and life is on this hillside.

So it is my prayer to you in this serene moon light

That grant me a few more full moon nights.
