Timeless Memories Of Our Past

Collection

Hellicane: Poets Respond to Hurricane Katrina

Timeless memories of our past Magnolias' scented fragrance cast Oh for those memories we adhere Please let's not forget our roots are here

Our paths we knew could never break From then til now our journeys take But interruption we may see Not keeping down the soul in me

I know this is just mere test Something made to bloom my best Together we can draw so near To overcome and persevere

Out of this we learn so much To communicate and share our touch To show each other, strangers that who Are in heart so much like me and you

So lift your head, build your soul And say a prayer that you should know That in the end we will all stand In this end, we still are the promised land
