A Nation Wept

A nation wept

The Mothers
The Fathers
The Children
The Unborn.

A nation wept

The tears of horror
The tears of loss
The tears of fear
The tears of unbelief.

A nation wept

In huddles
In aloneness
In solitude
In mass.

A nation wept

Moments of brokenness
Moments of insecurity
Moments of anger
Moments of togetherness.

A nation wept

Then bolstered
Then resolved
Then rebuilt
Then remembered.

A nation wept no more.

Change...a poem

Change
By Michelle R. aka Naila Moon of the Grey Wolf


Change is comin',
This has promised to be true.
Change is comin',
Will it be in red?
Or is it in blue?

Change is comin',
Or so we've been told.
Change is comin',
They have put this out
All great big and bold!

Change is comin',
Oh, but we can't wait.
Change is comin'.
But is it really going to come
To the United States?
