Hear me out
At ease,
I hear your victory shout!!!
Ooooo I-I-I-I...

Kneeling on pearls
wisdom preys
praying

hungry hearts
count the days
wasting away
in all that preying
for prayers
to be answered
children become
strangers
reading
strange words
finding
themselves puzzled

mouths closed,

The things none may ever describe

Never again...

Soaring through tales of barnyard Waddles and Squeaks,
Moo! Quack! Giggles tumble and bump.
Flaps flapping, bright colors...

hidden under layers of ink
he whispers his words
like a haunting breeze
dust blown off the pages
towards the back of their minds
once-in-a-while
reminding them of stories
they are eventually, all souls
book-marked
