Eileen Manassian Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

You Build Your Walls

You build your walls
Let me build halls
From mansion White
Down to the stalls

Where poor souls dwell
One step from hell
Who're tossed about
From trough to swell

You build your walls
Let me build halls
Where echoes dance
as freedom's calls

Where blessings flow
for ALL to know
That what we preach
our actions show

You build your walls
Let me build halls
Where hearts embrace
Without the brawls

Where all can feel
how love can heal
And what is shared
is warmth, a meal

You build your wall
It's sure to fall
Then we can meet
In Love's Grand Hall

Kai Michael Neumann March 7, 2017 at 1:09 AM Your hall is a good one. It also needs some perimeter, but plenty of access. This poem is beautiful and encouraging, Kai

Charmaine Chircop February 4, 2017 at 10:14 AM I believe in building bridges instead of walls Eileen...I do hope all walls that surround any of us wil fall down..so we can reach eachother.So happy to read such a beauty dear friend.
