| Southern Rain
Southern Rain... Nobody knows the troubles she's seen.. Nobody knows her sorrow. Southern Rain... The worst of horrors of the inhumane.. Her faith was her hope for tomorrow. Who can tell us what she saw? What can be said of what she never told? Gene altering, mind bending, .. Raw! Her tears were the only covering from the bitter, ..the cold. How did she manage to bear ancestors into this hell And keep her own warmth, her own dignity, her silence, her hope. When her 10 year old daughter was at the end of her term. And her 12 year old son was at the end of a rope. Tell us O Beloved Mother of Days, How you did what you did. Please share with us your dynamic ways. Did you cry? Did you lie? Did you pray and obey in your own interesting way.. did you forgive? Did you redirect that energy into another time, another place? Did you energize every cell of you being With a quiet strength and a powerful faith? Southern Rain. Thank you for your prayers and your tears. You are with us as we overcome our fears. Southern Rain. Each blessed drop nourishes the earth. As we look to the shining sun.. and give birth. copywrite 2008
