THE WEEPER:

Why do you weep my little one?

I weep when;

I see swans glide across a pond,

I see a bluebell wood & daffodils,

I see snowdrops upon winter frond,

I see lazy cats asleep on sunny sills,

I see poppies in golden field of corn,

I see first crocus & blood red rose,

I see peeping sun in golden dawn,

I see babe in gentle soft repose.

Why do you weep my little one?

I weep when;

I hear a bird passing upon the wing,

I hear raindrops fall upon thirsty earth,

I hear children & Angels sing,

I hear laughter at happy mirth,

I hear the uttered kind words,

I hear the pup gleefully bark,

I hear the cacophony of birds,

I hear the voice of early lark.

Why do you weep my little one?

I weep when;

I see beast cry in bloody pain,

I hear the wail of hungry child,

I see cruelty & hear the inane,

I hear wailing of the animal wild,

I see the past & what we have done,

I hear the future call on the breeze,

I see in sorrow my tears have won,

I pray to God, “help us please”.
