The Completion At Last (poem)

The completion at last
We were once,- only the embryo, implanted with faith
Cultivated from ideas, some old - and some new-
Nourished from a desire - to seek our fate
Beginning to flourish with dreams left - from the cool
Morning dew-
If we survive the drought in the summer, of prejudice
And hate,
Where lack of love threatens, to cut us down,- like an
Unwanted weed -
Providing winter’s cold heart, - doesn’t uproot us in war,
Only- to fill - its own selfish plate.
Then perhaps- the following season, will bring us, the promise
We- so desperately need !
For spring may bring us - warm hearts, to expose, our
Unstable petals,-- to a whole new light,
With April’s tears of remorse, for discrimination, and
Ignorance, which, created such gloom
Replenished - with hope - we will continue to grow,
There’s no stopping us now, for now, -- it’s - all- done right.
From here it unfolds, - the completion at last! for all of
God’s care,- will soon be in full bloom!
