A Flood Upon Lebanon From The Sky Poem by Moses Kainwo

A Flood Upon Lebanon From The Sky

Rating: 5.0


A flood was poured from the sky
Against the will of God
Against the will of man
Except that supermen
Superimposing their flags
Ordered a rain without a rainbow

The urge to move was strong
Against the will of God
Against the will of man
But the woman with a baby inside her
With a brain inside his head
Ordered them to wait

The waiting could be worth it
In the will of God
In the will of man
For in the history of that place
And on the table of that grave
Grave things are measured

In that same place a people were planted
In the will of God
In the will of man
And God the gardener named a garden
With flowers for them to name
If they did there could be no death

In that same place a tree was fixed
With shiny fruits
For the gardener’s pleasure
But they claimed the fruit
And changed the truth
So the war threw bones apart

See how innocence is paraded
In the streets of guilt
Against the will of God
Against the will of man
But Hope now holds a lighted lamp
For they will lose the war to God



The intangible flood of love
Is everyone’s dream
In the will of God
In the will of man
And this will once restored
Will will the much desired rainbow
