When growing up we all must learn
All things happen for a reason
Earth's fire-we must let it burn
Rain will come in its season

All things happen for a reason
This flame has burned for generations
Rain will come in its season
Drown the flames of sweet temptations

This flame has burned for generations
Through years of tears to put it out
Drown the flames of sweet temptations
Do not despair in times of drought

Through years of tears to put it out
Fallen smiles and saddened eyes
Do not despair in times of drought
Do not swallow your own cries

Fallen smiles and saddened eyes
When growing up we all must learn
Do not swallow your own cries
Earth's fire_we must let it burn

God bless America, my home sweet home.

Great job, Lisa!!
You must have put in quite some effort to make this poem make sense... I've seen this form of poetry before and tried it, but I've failed badly... no sense came of it.
