I Defer My Dream Poem by Tony Adah

I Defer My Dream



I will defer my dream;
Defy my sleep
Until when it rains
And the ground is soft
So I can drive my ploughshares
Through; prepare the land
For my countrymen to sow
The seeds of accord;
Nurture our bonds
Change the weakness of our variegation
Into strength;
Damn politics with bitterness
Beatify our heroes
And make every land a home
For every countryman
Until then I defer my dream
As I defy my sleep.
