Feoma Came In Silken Tresses


Feoma Mama Came In Silken Tresses

I saw the rainbow in seven colours

The twilight was such a delight to sight.

Feoma Mama came in silken tresses

She came wearing her rose-tinted glasses

Glowing like the eyelashes of the night

With the sheen of the moon.

Her eyes were twin blinking brown balls

With the golden eyelashes of Dawn

Oh, Feoma Mama !

Our love will ascend higher

Reaching for the stars of the universe

And lift us into the bliss of Paradise.

In my painted words

The flowers of our love will blossom

Our love will be like red roses in bloom.

Oh, Feoma Mama !

Even Heaven knows my heart

That I love you.
