Sisters
Hands together
Sisters,
crush the boundaries
between your black and white fingers.
Walk together
Sisters,
tread the steep path
on the mountain of Harmonoy.
Cry together
Sisters,
Cleanse our planet
with your tears of sorrow.
Sing together
Sisters,
sing songs of peace
in rhythms of unity.
Laugh together
Sisters,
Eruptions of pleasure,
buoyant in joyful sharing.
Hold together
Sisters,
Hold this crumbling Earth
with your bond of love.
Joy Brisbane
