Tears flowing
From my brown eyes
And pain so heavy
In my broken heart
I took the flute
Filled with my mother's love
Grinning, he looked
Over my shoulder
From behind.
The devil chuckled
While getting ready
To consume
My fragile mind.
“Girl,”
His husky voice rumbled,
“I’ve broke you,
What have you to say?”
Without speaking a word
I lifted my flute
In my lips
Began to slowly play.
But, I didn’t play for him,
This song
Suddenly taking flight
From deep within.
I offered Him a melody
Wherein all that’s honorable
Is tinged
By the scent of sin.
The melody
Spoke of Eden
And of mankind’s plunging
Fall.
It’s haunting rhythm
Whispered of trials, tribulations,
And tears, and how
He had authored all.
Each sound
Seemed to strike a chord
Attuned to make
The prince of darkness cry.
As he turned and ambled away,
I paused while wondering -
Why?
I am the star
Shining in the whole sky!
I am nothing more or less
Than anyone else, nevertheless,
I am made of a substance
That before the eyes of the world
I may look different,
No fault of my own!
I was created to the image
Of the Almighty above,
Filled with inner peace and love
And there is not evil in me,
I see no colors and only one race:
The human race, a unique face!
The world is my home
And the Almighty my light,
I know no hate and neither
I seek revenge on others
For silly mistakes made
When forgiveness is called!
I cannot be a stranger
In my own house when
I am a citizen of the world
Sharing my love and words
Until I hear death's call,
Letting me know it is my turn!
Then I will answer
Knowing I
Lived right

There's so much
We do not see.
Day after day
We're touched
By unseen miracles
That pause
Like the beat
Of a heart
Before moving on,
Only to lay
It's hand
On the head of a soul,
Prostrate
Penitent
And patient.
Waiting and praying
For the answer
To a prayer,
That has just arrived
On the wings
Of an angel.
Fulfilled we will be
Joy shall our hearts feel
For a swift answer
Gladens the soul
