Pray

The lightning crashes, the rain pours down
hopelessness is all around
The thunder rolls, the earth it quakes
the children cry as they wake
The wind is fierce, the oaks they sway
deep inside I hear you pray
Now the birds they sing, the flowers bloom
day shines away all the gloom
smiles in lives, love in hearts
children wake to a better start
Unity has won, fear's gone away
all because I heard you pray

Hey, this is great! I love it. It's probably one of the best poems I've read in a while. From the view of god, I'm guessing, and I love the rhyme and rhythm. Thumbs up!
