Carribean Rising They rise with the sun and before the day is done there is work to do but they will get through with the help of their neighbours that's what they live for To always lend a hand be it plowing the land or reaping the corn for bread in the morn along side the meat and everyone will eat Endless summer days, blazing hot char kettle and pot not calling each other black they thrive on the fact that togetherness and unity build a solid community Each day compromising contributing to the rising; knowing that none of their battles will be won if they don't live as one ONE PEOPLE rising A CARIBBEAN RISING |
