She layed cool from the mute As beautiful as the river goddess Her smile still looked beautiful But she is now a star Sitting in the galaxy of the greats She crossed to the other side Where the grass is greener And the water purer As she layed cool from the mute She smiled like a diva For the first time since the news broke I released droplets of tears Then I smiled... She knows I love her But who am I to query the Creator Who has chosen to take His creation She got to her final abode Done and dusted, she bowed Afterall, legends don't die They translate Join me celebrate my icon The one whose vehicle I rode to earth From dust to dust she slept Yet, so beautiful Adieu Mama!
