Of Haitian Blood
Those displaced and in heartache...
Of Haitian blood.
Severed from a flowing.
Now exposed by the power,
Ot tremors and earthquakes.
The depth of what I feel reaches out to you.
Why this disrupted destructiveness,
Has occured in your lives as it has...
Brings upon such sadness.
That faith and time will heal...
Although these images visioned,
Will seem to forever last.
No one but 'you',
Know what this experience is...
You now live.
With torment to go through.
I 'can not' fathom it with applied imagination.
This devastation of epic proportion,
Distorts every emotion felt with me!
Within my spirit I reach to soothe with touch.
My Haitian brothers and sisters suffering...
I love you.
I love you.
I love you...
So very much!
We 'are' ONE.
And for whatever the reason...
To you and to us all this has been done!
Dedicated:
To all my Haitian brothers and sisters.
