I walked upon a hidden trail...
took time to listen, with my heart...

can't say my mind completely understood...
but I listened just the same.

somewhere in my being...I grew from what I'd heard..
and growing still...I try to listen...
with my heart...even when I don't think I understand...

growing....towards knowing...my life is in His hands.


Excellent K, loved the ending...

Will She

I know I cannot help
He can't hold her anymore.
The world has crushed in around
Even death is not the cure.

There is no solace,
No bending down into
Reaching at her level
Her need, what will she do?

Raine Les 10/27/2009


She will hold on
She will rise. once again
if only in the eyes of those who (see)
Hold steady... with grace and all will be as it should

I love you
Beautiful you


She will trust that the Blessed One
Will keep her in His hands
That even in chas He is in control
And no matter what level she is
He can reach and touch her soul

Love Peace and Blessings
Both of you

Love, peace and blessings to you

The Drums….
M.E. Martin

I hear the drums of Mother Africa
Calling to me in a rhythm as
Old as the color of my skin

The beat sounds like the heartbeat of life
I feel pounding through my veins
Can’t you feel it too?

Life pounding, surging bringing me
To my feet making me want to dance
My feet can’t help moving

I hear Mother Africa calling
Her voice is alive and as old as time
Reminding me of my beauty

Releasing me from my shame
Telling me of Kings and Queens
Whose bloodlines I share

Of warrior men and women
Bold, strong and brave
Their history just now being learned

The drums are beating out
The call of Mother Africa
Her voice is soothing in my ear

I have listened to this sound
As I slept in the arms of mama
Or been comforted in the strong arms of daddy

When nothing else could bring me peace
The beat that originated from the Cradle of
Civilization calms the chaos brought on by the world

Mother Africa is calling in the sound of drums
Her voice is familiar
It is like coming home

Welcoming me back into the fold
Of brothers and sisters
That I have just met

The men move like the men I’ve always known
The women look like women I’ve always seen
This is family finally reconnected

The drums of Mother Africa are calling
Her voice reminding me of sun baked lands
And beautiful sun kissed babies

The beat is timeless endless and
Mother Africa speaks through it
It is the beat of life

It calls to the freedom in my soul
An ancient rhythm that is a
Language of its own

Her voice is fathomless
But I know it as surely as
I know my own

I hear the call of Mother Africa
The summons to come home
To be cradled once more

To be rocked in it’s bosom
Where my creativity was born
Where my heritage is worn like a second skin
