I need some time

By Chebet Caroline.

I need a little time,

I need a little rest,

To once again brood in my nest,

And to once more digest,

To revive this straining thought,

And to rubbish all what is naught

I need some more little time,

Some day time to laugh,

And life time to love,

Some peace time to live

Before that end time eve

I need some long time to live

I need some night time to pray

To bare my sins in an arrayed display

I need some quick time to reflect,

Some life time to perfect,

What might have been negating my living

And constantly leaving my mind storming

I prettily need some time

A perfect time to pump some senses to my life

A longer time to reduce my strife

A much pretty time to forgive,

And a humbler time to sieve,

What seems good from the bad

I need some time to add

What seems to be missing

For a life worth cheering.
