Such despair now...
Reflected in their eyes
And weighing so heavily
In our hearts.
Tears not worth crying
Fear and sorrow,
Too much to put into hiding
When so many have died or are dying.
No words can be spoken
and no relief seems to be coming.
The gifts of life and hope
are a token of relief. A mere token.
Too many shall huddle
while others sit and cry ,"What a shame!"
And silence will follow the call
for there is no one to blame.
Times like this will sort out
Those who are hero or coward
And they shall be found
when adveristy comes around.
Prayers, now go forth into the sky
and everyone's efforts are renewed.
Does it matter which god has been called?
When belief and faith have gone askew.
But nature is to continue onward
and stand back up, brush it off.
No matter what knocks humanity down
Cities and towns will rebound.
The supplies will come and not stop
Needs and wants will be tended to...
One day the waters will recede
and all that was pent up, should be freed.
Neighbor will look at neighbor
and friend will look at foe.
The true nature of humanity
at this time will surely show.
For hope has always been there
and will forever continue to break through.
And when the skies look their darkest
Spirits will lift and the skies will once more be blue.
