Hard days, comfortable days

Pan Jose 2003 (Accra)



Pictures of us in our early days are in a bliss
Men search deep on land , seas only to find a small fortune
Mothers feeling helpless in their returns but their watery eyes never seem to send their smiles away in front of their babies
One found here , there only to end up in a wooden box
The beliefs of finding green pastures after these deserts are thrilling
Together we all live in hard days for comfort to appear to a few
Everyday crawls back to mother evening and next, next and next
Comfortable days, hard days
