    This late night rain on earth
    Persisted like the angel of death
    Deprived my soul of a warm breath
    Still not forgetting to wet my starched shirt.

    The darkness became thicker
    With the weather making me shiver
    My candle never stopped to flicker
    With my blue sweater on, I still quiver.

    I feel so lonely
    Night like this can make one unholy
    My heart raced to God like a trolley
    Which prevented me from acting folly.

    I don't have memories of a night like this
    Those with me were one with creamy teas
    Made for me by my uncle after his tease
    Calling me a bad cook as we passed the trees.

    Nothing last for long
    I remembered him to be strong
    Always advising me when I do wrong
    He is gone but my heart remember his song.

    I feel nothing again
    The loud sound that filled my ear was of a train
    What is visible is a plantation of grain
    Dream! The reasonable answer to this is plain.

    The crow of the cock woke me
    Rays of the sun is what I see
    A new dawn present itself as I pee
    Whispering that the best day is ahead if I agree.
