Its night fall <br />With brain wash <br />There are hash walls <br />Fasten fast against dates dash <br />Now among a million sparks <br />A watchful eye <br />That never blink before perilous dark <br />But watch his own on high a distance sky <br />Against signs of awful night <br />When several unseen arrows take their flight <br />Who cares when all slumbers and snores <br />Hoping for tomorrow watch <br />Just at dawn life ignore <br />Sure when in silence one is caring <br />Over a million eyes dim and closed <br />Though some lay together <br />While some alone <br />The wood keeper cares forever <br />For silver and for gold <br />For mighty and mean things <br />And most times come down low <br />Just to preserve his precious abase <br />And as i wake up this time again <br />I know no other but him alone <br />Who had done enough <br />To keep me safe <br />And his shield over me <br />Has a look like love<br /><br />George Egba<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wood-keeper/
