We rise

We rise
as a people
as a nation
we rise
as ourselves
each one
unique, special
we rise
alone
together
as God’s creation
we rise, we rise
into Your light

We rise
right after hearing about the death
of Maya Angelou
and listening to obituary/ story on CNN
post on her Twitter account of May 23, 2014
“Listen to yourself and in that quietude you might hear the voice of God.”
