FAREWELL MARIA ANGELINA LEWIS - MA LESLIE I just got the news my grandma is dead the precious soul that feed meThey told me that she is lying at Ram Bally funeral home so let it beI must make my way to Grand Ma book me on the first flight home Grandpa Leslie was gone for quite a long time on high with the saints It is now time for the reunion to begin the circle of love is united Grandpa Leslie Lewis a fisherman husbandman unique and noble left his kin and journeyed to channels where he reside with his bride he fish the waters of Pwindaykye his generosity knows no bound the people all love him not because he was the governor's brother but because he was kind generous and strong at heart you see I look down at Grandma lying in her crib she was smiling at me I knew that if I utter a word she would hear me don’t ask me how previously in my dreams, Grand Ma came to me a secret she did whisper child, she said if you look up with a prayer I am looking down you see so I knew my grandma would hear so I whisper Grand Ma I love you Looking up at grandma my tears fell like rain dripping down her chick and I gently wipe away the water from her brow oh so gently soon it will be time to take her to her last ride and cease her fight Grand Ma life journey spend it in a little hamlet made for two I am afraid her gathering will be pitiful but Grand Ma I will be there To the church of St. Lucy upon the Arendell hill there she lay her head I came to bid her farewell for one last time my eyes lit up like a dime three scores and ten volunteered to be her pole bearer and so did I the church-filled dignitaries and well-wishers pave the seats the family was seated in the front row I took my seat beside them
