America Weeps By Melissa P. Monette Standing proud and tall let us join together let us rise to freedom's call a nation united in prayer releasing our pain and fears embracing by the light of dawn to ease the eagle's tears as the candle of hope flickers on "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... it is a song that rises from a bleeding wound...or a smiling mouth" ~Kahlil Gibran~ [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 09-20-2001).] |

We will douse the enemy fire with our tears... and freedom will forever reign in our hearts. I stand with you Milissa hand in hand we pray for peace and God in his mercy will see that Goodness will prevail... A great heartfelt write! Maggie ((~.~)) |
