Power of Yaa

The rains have come
from the seas they march
riding on the chariots of 
Shu.
With black angry faces 
from a furious fight with 
Helios. 
They cover the sky with 
their might and beat 
down on Asaase Yaa. 
In pain she screams and 
twists
making vast a number of 
drops run down her 
inexplicable features. 
This creates rushing 
waters strong enough to 
bring down the mighty 
Odum.
The great three has fallen 
from the tongue lashing 
of the rains.
Asaase Yaa sheds tears 
which makes everything 
beautiful giving life to the 
dead seed.
She shouts out rise from 
your slumber you 
dormant seed rise.
Break through my 
epidermis and nourish 
yourself with my rain 
soaked nutrients.  
Live again and disgrace 
the clouds.
Make them see that they 
cant distroy the earth. 
What the spoil i will 
replenish a hundred fold.
 With their rain spears i 
shall build canopies.
And with thier fury i will 
create rivers and 
fountains.
For i am the great mother 
nature.
I make you reap what 
you sow.
So sow with caution.
