THE WALL | |
(by Rachel Williams) | |
We looked at the wall My mother and me We looked at the wall It was time to see It was time to look It was time to learn It was time to feel It was time to yearn We walked to the wall We searched high and low We walked to the wall My mom wanted to go It was time to walk slow It was time to be strong It was time to hold hands Oh the time took so long We both touched the wall The sun shone from up high We both touched the wall My mom started to cry It was time to touch It was time to cry It was time to pray It was time to ask "Why?" We cried at the wall Daughter and mother We cried at the wall For my uncle, her brother There are so many names Carved into the stone So many lost loved ones Who have never been known The wall has a lesson That it teaches with tears Live together in peace For the rest of our years Copyright © 1995 Rachel Williams |
