As They Jump The Broom

 Leap, spring, jump

The broom

Like our ancestors

Who brought us forth from the womb

Wishing, hoping, praying for the day

That the Lord would move in a mysterious way

And bless the children that they would conceive

To live in a world were they could strive, plan, achieve

For the life they endured was of brutality and hate

Progeny of Kings, Queens and world first great

People.  My people

Open your eyes 

For the enemy scheme is to dismantled and deprive

You and yours of family heirlooms

Gifted by the elder, brides and grooms

Leaping forward with hope

As they jump the broom
