Richard Ferry Poet Rhyme

Faith

Huddled in the doorways    Old woman wearing tattered shawls    Beads of hope in their weathered hands    God like images fill their walls     Nothing can break their faith    Their destiny is already at hand    When thir souls depart this world     They will go to their promised land    My hope is for all the Senoras    And for all their loved ones too    The answer to their prayers    Are unspoken words that our true    My plea is to their God   An image in their head    Please do not desert your faithfull believers     When they are placed on the alter of the dead
