Weeping Widow don't You Cry

If the world could weep
if rain could wash away tears
would the flood be forty days
or forty years
what time it shall take
happily my life I would forsake
if only
children laughed
children played
children loved
teaching elders not to hate
never having to live in fear
I would drown peacefully
a happy woman
