Good Night

Be you,
On you alone
rely.

Rely,
Not on man's vow;
Your hands.

Your hands:
Only true friends,
Play not.

Play not,
In your morning;
Time flies.

Time flies,
Hit the targets;
Save wins.

Save wins,
Days are differed;
Your night.

Your night,
Guide jelously;
Fear God.

Fear God
And worship him -
Good night.

This is a good train ride Kayode; pity that technically it went slightly off the track, but on the whole I enjoyed it, especially the ending. Pity I missed it before! You still merit hearty congratulations! hugs // paul
