Deborah Cromer - Blessing

Hail to the long hairs alive
Through time and hell they survive
With strength and patience they hold their mind
The touch and love all, ever so kind
Secrets and surprises offered fast
Leaving memories deep, to forever last
They have known cold, but give warmth by heart
Living to wait, waiting for a true love to start
Knowing and believing with patience, in life they trust
Accepting that which happens, is not always just
Shit happens and they do their best
To overcome and conquer any quest
It is the same ol', same ol' every day
Surviving and giving in every way
They touch and breathe in beautiful air
The long hairs, who have taught me with care
Bless the long hairs, for they know love
And love we know, comes from above
