Pictures painted by the spoken art
Telling stories in rhyme
Glimpsing deep into the private heart
The colors of a moment in time
Illustrating fond desires and dreams
Emotions weaving story lines
The melodic universal blending sound
Containing consensual design
We find the answers to our prayers
In the choices we've made
Hope grows in the heart
When all worry starts to fade
Calling out for one more time around
Begin and end the same way
That certain special cadence carries through
The handcuffs of time drift away
Words strong enough to dry the tears
That eyes of sorrow spill in pain
Contains the message spelled so clear
Written on every drop of rain
