~a Raging River©
We could fill a river with tears,
upon awakening and peace not near.
Then in that river swim away,
to have not peace on any given day.
From sunrise to sundown
we'd cry enough tears to drown,
if we let hate pick up the pace:
for it would be the end of the human race.
From such peace we are whole,
embedded deep within the soul.
And when it's there the river flows peacefully,
sending a calm over you and me.
But God's tears make a raging river flow,
for he knows something we don't know.
There'll never be peace on this land,
as long as two people exist with such bitterness on hand!
