Rain washes away,
Cleanses the soul on this day,
Brings peace in its way
The battle was hard,
Making sad songs for the bard,
Our wounds we regard
Now is time for rest,
Finally peace in our nest,
Now for us the best
Another day, another battle in play,
But for now long songs of victory!
Note: Though this poem is personal and familial, it is also dedicated to the recent victory in the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) controversy. As Tanya Cliff just reported, “The Army Corps of Engineers has denied a permit for the current routing of the DAPL to cross Lake Oahe. This is a major victory for Native American tribes…” Praise almighty God for this long-awaited good news!
I loved the poetry you placed with this good news! Inspirational!
Thank you so much… I was writing the poem, at first, for personal reasons but then thought it was very appropriate for the occasion. 🙂
