[hometext] => We are all blades of grass.........
[bodytext] => A single, lonely blade of glass,
Standing in the world that’s so vast,
Being blown from side to side,
With no-where to run & hide.
Taking all the wind & the rain,
Along with the weather comes the strain,
Bending over but never giving in,
Still managing to bear it & grin.
Resistance builds with the ages,
It gets easier to lift the heavy pages,
Beginning to run after the walk,
Learning to shout after the talk.
Forever like this we can stand,
Swaying to & fro in this open land,
Being defiant in the face of hurt,
Never bowing down into the dirt.
We are all alone in our world,
Witnesses to futures as they unfurl,
Standing tall & feeling brave,
Not letting woe see us into a shallow grave.

Wonderful write, how the grass is blowing by its self.......Well sometimes we feel like that, but in all we have things that keep us together. It takes sun and rain to keep tha grass, and it takes love and happiness for us.
Again, very nice writing! |

Taking all the wind & the rain,
Along with the weather comes the strain,
Bending over but never giving in,
Still managing to bear it & grin.

I am apart of everything
Everyone
Somewhere deeply seeded
Is a connection I can't see
So I am me by myself
All alone
Side by side |
