Hope Poem by Prince Adedeji S. Ologbenla

When the time seems so long
That it look like the pains will last forever
That the strong tide lift the cable strain
When it seems all hope is lost into darkness
That the cloud unfold to blind the sky
When it seems the future is dead
That cool breeze cease to blow
When it seems this is hell itself
That the sun smothers the softness of the skin
When the bellows roll
The thunder strikes
And the tempest rave violently
When it seems that nature is against life
Peep from the darkness with a gleam of hope
That beyond the darkness lies the sunshine
That all is just a low long rumble That'll sooner dwindle into a sigh
For nothing last till eternity
And not forever will your pain last
For a moment is its longevity
Though darkness may tarry for the night
Certainly light'll come in the morning
