Gone wit d wind (a tribute 2my irreplaceable granny)

Gone wit d wind lik a kite, escaped from it's handler's grip, ur transition on dat fateful tuesday threw us in2 a sudden dip, death came uninvited as a stranger would, and u welcomed it as graceful as u culd, but it had 2wait as an errand-boy wuld, until u bade farewell 2ur children, and as we gaze upon ur remains, we are grateful 4d life u lived, 4 it is a testament of a life fulfilled, now transfigured, we hail u as u glide gracefully in d sky, and on our shoulder, heavy as a burden, d great legacy u left behind, as a woman n mother, u were a quintessence of d kind, and u will remain ever-green in our mind, u were a jewel of inestimable value, and shone conspicuously 4 anyone 2 argue, u were a paragon whose beauty flawed every other, ur contemporaries knew contendin wit u ws a tall order, mama, enumeratin ur qualities, i culd go on n on, but it stil wont change d fact dt u re gone, and as indispensable as u were, 4eva irreplaceable u will remain 4all our time here. Adieu Mama! Lekwara anya si Nneoma!
