Holy,holy
Thembelihle Malaza 2006 (Johannesburg)
When the shy turns blue I'm waiting
Waiting for the perfect rain to return
Returning with good hopes
Children running into shade, while I stand and raise my hand
Singing holy,holy you finally come
Staring at the missing sun, hoping you gone forever
Dancing and kicking the water to feel myself
Screaming holy,holy you finally come
Tempted by the cold shivers to close my eyes
While I seek like
Everything turns blue but time turns dark
Praying with an infinity soul, while the shivers burn in hell
Not cause they not praying
But a song is sang so sing holy,holy....you finally come
Joy and excitement increase to you, holy
Filling my soul with a filled heart
Staring to my soul, you discover
Looking into my heart, you mend it
Singing back to me
Holy, holy you finally come
With the high wished rain, came happiness and a new song
Holy, holy you finally come
About this poem
It's all about the rain and how it created a new song and meaning to everyone
