SMILING WITH THE ANCESTORS

 

Smile if I could

smile if I would

smile as I should…

I can see

ancestors smiling

down on you me…

They’re singing

for us to lean

on them when

we feel weak

for they are

with us

like living beings

giving what we seek

in our friend Jesus…

Being truly

in this together

against the unruly

in the present weather

there’s still something

we hold

even though nature we

don’t control…

We’re not mere bards

but today’s troubadours

Griots of village yards…

Keys of faith’s hoping doors

singing tears of thanksgiving

and praising we’re still living…

still living…still living on

since the day we were born

for the ancestors laid the way

and left the footprints to trod

towards the change-coming day

As we continue trek onward

knowing this pitiful potus is not

the boss…

In hell, his soul shall surely rot

for our Lord Jesus has risen

from the cross!

So smile…sea to sea

with the ancestors smiling

on both you and me

still down here foot-printing:

Hey…God will take care

of us;

And so will our brother…

Jesus.

So peace be still and fear

not…

Holy redemption is here

on the spot.
