November
A month like no other month
In my Calendar
November
The month of My birth
November
The Month of Unforgettable Transitions
2nd November
Papa’s Transition Anniversary
15th November
Mama’s Transition Date
Today
28th November
My Day of birth
14 Days ago
Yours truly was initiated
Into the Club of the Orphans
Mama chose not to wait for this day
The day of my birth
It is what life brings sometimes
A time of mourning
Clashing with a time of celebration
Leaving you in an awkward position
Of how to handle the two
As I mourn the great woman
I celebrate her for a life well lived
As I celebrate today
The loss of mama
Is writ large in my subconscious mind
In all
The Most High deserves all the praises
Happy birthday to me
