Let the rain come

 Let the rain come and wash away the ancient grudges, the bitter hatreds held and nurtured over generations. Let the rain wash away the memory of the hurt, the neglect. Then let the warmth of the sun heal us wherever we are broken. Let it burn away the fog so we can see each other clearly, beyond labels, accents, gender or skin colour so we can share the joys and feel the sorrows of our neighbours. Let the earth, nourished by rain, bring forth gardens to give us hope. And the mountains teach our hearts to reach upwards to Heaven.
