Sleep always long to take my breath away, br But promises never to trouble any man's good rest, br A dreamland with vision faraway, br A giver and angel of a renewed breath, br But time may come; i need thee not, br Night lamps and whisperers are here, br Blessed companions for today's need, br Lift from my cloudy eyes your spells and tears, br So that, i may dine in works of good deeds, br Or should i swim to sleep? br without stroking in labor straight and deep? br Take me not with thee! br Until the night prayers are said to me!br br Olabode Joseph Oluwatayobr br
