This Is Not The Time For A Rest Poem by Enitan Onikoyi

You look forward far beyond the horizon; you see how far you have to go; it is good now to double your pace if you can.
When you're climbing the mountain, it is high, rough and stoning, but you have to reach the mountain top.
You cannot give up now, the mountain top is closer than you think.
When it is time to take part in race, the important thing is not wining they say, but to take part in every game.
I'm telling you today, why take part if you do not want to win?
If you win, you win for yourself before the country that sends you.
Put your mind and energy in all you do, the gain is ment to brighten your life.
So, the time for rest is not far away, it is just around the corner.
This is not the time to rest, make haste, while the sun shines.
