Lay Your Thick White Blanket on our Land

by David R Mellor

Lay your thick white blanket on our land

Cover up the corruption

The beggars scavenging for food

Lay your thick white blanket on our land

It freezes the lies in mid-air

Gives the children a smile

Freezes the parents’ tears

Let the thick white blanket stay on this earth
