It Is Tomorrow Where You Are |

The earth feels old tonight and we who stand on its cold rim look toward the stars and face a new year. It is raining everywhere as if the rain could wash it away by some grave magic make peace fall into our hair. Open your hearts this night, let the light therein shine brightly so the path shall not be so dim. Perhaps there is hope for such as we. I say there is fine fresh stuff of faith, a renewable garden where flowers bloom, where we are warm where we shall dance. We who stand alone on this cold rim shall go with the glow of our hearts, we shall carry flowers, we shall go on together. And when they stop to search us, their guns and searchlights ready, we shall stand and sing songs of hope, songs of survival. Graphics: NASC "I am not now that which I have been." |
