"African Spirit,"


The Night is Relief to a Weary Mind


The night seems to swallow
The problems of life
If only for a moment

Sleep's like a drug
Taking away the pain
Till morning light

Hard days seem managed
By a little rest
Until solutions come

Natural and cyclical unconsciousness
Seems to bring back
Relief to a weary mind
