We Weep Together In the Rain - Pick Any Line Contest

The inhumanities of others brings tears to our eyes Watching the scenes on the screen When the newscaster is wanting to cry Children crying in torment In pain reaching out for aid Suffering not in silence for what price have they paid We weep together in the rain Each to their own shower to cry same prayers, same shame of humanity Same torment in our eyes We are tormented because we cant Useless because we would Politician we can chivvy Make peace, if only we could We weep together in the rain - my Katherine from Wales -by Arthur Vasso Penned by Seren Roberts
