Sleeping In the Deepest Dawn
I had my own share of the
toil
Placing my bare hands in the
soil
I had accomplished much for
the day
Don’t care what critics had
to say
With enthusiasm I welcomed
the night
Grabbing my pillow, I slept
like a knight
There would be no blinking
‘cos my eyelids would be
hugging
Hard work had proved itself
productive
So there would be no need
for a sedative
I hope there be no
disturbance
‘cos I intend sleeping even
after dawn
I slept! Yes I did sleep for
days
Missed lots of opportunities
that came my way
Who shall awaken I and this
country from this
‘cos we have indeed slept in
our deepest dawn.
