Adumbratus Poem by Joseph Oladehinde Ibikunle

Adumbratus



Like the leaf,
It withers and falls off
And decays, then to oblivion.
So is the life of a man here.
.
Like the rain,
Gushes from the sky in fiery flood,
While the earth absorbs in usual dexterity
So are our days and livelihood.
.
Like the burning flame,
It ascends and dissolves.
Thus, we return to where we came,
To the dust, from where man evolves.
