I
Songs of
Compassion on a warm
Summer’s night…
The matriarch of Tamworth
Feeds the hungry child
II
I see a thousand
Angels, with wings of light,
Dancing…
With the refugees in the mean
Streets of Tamworth
III
The long quest
For future in the landscape
Of beauty & joy
The hidden river of tears
Under the rainbow
IV
In the
Shadow of dismay, they
Wait, in vain,
For signs of hope under
The Tamworth moon
V
Footprints
Of the lost boy in the
Sun-burnt country…
The sweet sound of a
Different drum
VI
A ray of hope
In the horizon, this
Year of the pig…
The golden wattle blooms
In the garden of dreams

It is wonderful to hear of the hope for the Sudanese families. My wish is for the people in Tamworth to come to understand what a blessing they have been given and for there to be comfort and harmony and joy for all of the residents, new and old.
Thank you, Technobabe, for your profound understanding of the plight of the Sudanese families in Tamworth.
Nevertheless, let's keep hope alive; for every cloud has a silver lining, so to speak.
Much love!
