DAY-NIGHT MOMENTS by Olaniyi Abdulwaheed

There shall be no sea

Without consent of the estuary of our love

No day without rays of your bright eyes

Man lives nowhere, but here I stand

Arike

Let me be the guard of your hymen

Let me be the keeper of your beauty sea-bird

Flying across the heart to lay bed

For our midnight game

Let’s sing to the flute

Echo those lyrics to the world

Forever we sing this

Let me be the crown of your head

My humility will serve your curly hair,

Walk in the night with light of your teeth

Let’s awake sleepy night

Errand, the pillow, blow the whistle

For our day-night chuckles

There must be curfew for the day

For festival of the night

And blind the sun with our pajamas

To surf more pages on bed
