MENOPAUSE @ 21

Ah!!! She has grey hair but with no wisdom.
Her menses has ceased and she couldn't bear a son.
She carries herself about helplessly; always dependent on others.
She had menopause @ 21.

she has become blind to nature's beauty.
 she cannot hear the merry making of the harps
Nor the melancholic blues of the mourners .
She  hardly knows she's been left in the dew.
She had menopause @ 21.

She tastes not the difference between honey and vinegar.
The mice grows  fat on her left over food
While cockroaches play ''merry -go-round'' in her plates.
Mosquitoes dance ''harlem shakes'' in her drinking water.
She had menopause @ 21.

Her room is a discotheque and cemetery for all insects.
Her long nose cannot even alert her.
But wait,her mouth will never shut.
She had menopause @ 21.


Her grey hair is but a decoration over her head.
And her brain is a blow- hole;
As vacant as an empty vessel.
But to herself she knows it all .
She had menopause @ 21.


She tells all she knows about life,
But couldn't make life pay for her own price.
She had but a veneer of knowledge,
But gives the impression of having a timber of it.
Always with reference to her grey hair.
She does too much talking and too little listening.
She had menopause @ 21.


She has a flock of opinion ready to be given out.
Be a friend of her and have no desires of your own.
She died at a very ripe age,
But  was seen a coward in the eyes of society.
She had no property. Don't be like her,
She had menopause @ 21.


Keep your eyes and ears wide open but your mouth shut;
You have  brains in your mind;
A very authentic kind;
Use it to the benefit of mankind;
So you'd not be left behind;
Tell the world what you intend to find;
But first show it in a classic bind;
And refuse to go through life very blind.


She had menopause @ 21, will you follow in her FOOTSTEPS ?
