I CRY

Can you hear me?. I'm crying for peace. Can you hear me?.
I cry for peace within myself, can you hear me?.
I cry for acceptance from my family and friends.I cry for my children and their well-being.I cry for love,and to be loved,to find understanding and compassion.
CAN YOU HEAR ME?.
I cry for the one's that I've lost through this journey of life and I cry for the one's that I'm losing.I'm crying for the one's that's bee bound and gagged by the people of their society and their endless beliefs.
CAN YOU HEAR ME?.
I'm crying for the one's that are trying to get over,but family and friends continue to push them under. I'm crying to hang on to my faith,my sanity,and my ministry.I'm crying for the one's that have given up on everything and everyone.
CAN YOU HEAR ME?.
I'm CRYING FOR THE MOTHER-LESS AND THE FATHER-LESS.I'm crying for the one's that are hungry,job-less,and homeless.I cry for the one's who don;t know how to cry.
CAN YOU HEAR ME?.

I hear you Lavenia because I am crying too.
I am crying for the brown pelicans
and the brown people in Arizona
I am crying for the people who moved north
seeking an end to hunger and slavery
in lands they used to own
only to find more hunger and slavery
and hate.
I am crying for the sea turtles and the dolphins
God's innocent creatures fouled by man's greed for oil
I am crying with you and all those who are crying and those who don't know how.
Hang on and cry with me
in faith and two part harmony . . .

Lavenia,

You have me "crying" too. This is a wonderful masterpiece. I love to write poetry, also. I will post some to you as soon as I can gather it. I have some writings about the story of how my husband and I met and then later got married. It is called, "And now it is time to move on." It is interesting.
