Had It All? Poem by Adeosun Olamide

She had radiant skin
And attractive physique
And gorgeous eyes
Except for beautiful heart

And eloquence
And influence
And powerful voice she had
Except nice words towards others

And priests
And government
And even crowd had she
Except Jesus, son of God

And gold
And robes
And lucre about
Except for benevolence towards street dwellers

She has coffin and funeral-goers
And beautiful epitaph
And flowers by grave
Except for joy in hell
