Dear Cod
A race on bended knee,
Brown arms stretched heavenward
Eyes blinded by their secret tears unshed,
Sobs out its thanks to Thee.
The sod,
On which they humbly kneel,
More oft has felt their tread,
Light moving, swift tho happy heart
Lifted each heel
Father,
They do not act role
Gay clowns on ife's highway.
Their jests and mimicry in public place
Conceal soul ....
Father,
So bruised and torn, thru years
Of daily blow on blow,
1t oft must creep in secret place to hide
It's venial tears.
My Lord
Their wrongs pass all belief
Their manhood crucifed
Each day; their bodies slain. All Christi
You knew such grief.
A hoard
Of ills are theirs, thru foes
Who multiply with years.
But no-another time, another day
They'll speak these woes.
Omipotence-
Nor yet they do not pray
For rights denied, or acts
By law, long promised them to right these wrongs.

Of other days; nations waif
From field and cabin cried;
And not in vain. That memory they retain
Thank God for Faith. - :.
