Sarah A. Bell Poems

A mother's tears flow at the birth of her child.
A mother's tears flow at the death of her child.
A mother's tears are a cloak of protection saturating her offspring, from the crown of their head continuously to the soles of their feet.
A mother's tears reach the highest mountain and go down in the lowest valley.
...

When tide waters seem to take your breath, and bellows do flow
He is faithful, He that promised.
When dark clouds seem to canopy your entire being
He is faithful, He that promised.
...

In His silence-
I can hear and feel His Spirit in
me
His silence-In
...

Can't you see and feel the hurting people running to and fro?
Can't you see and feel the hurting people saying, "Why was I born?
Can't you see and feel the hurting people saying, "A new month with days of rejection, repetition, remorse."
Can't you see and feel the hurting people saying, There is nowhere to hide."
