Hurry Tomorrow

Sorrow--a purple hued note
Despair's mate
Awash in tragic aftermath
Of nature's horrific circumstance

Destruction has claimed its prize
Chaos and death are everywhere
We search the horizon for beauty's ray
Yet--nay, none do we see today

Hurry tomorrow!

It is true. Such dark times. And yet, you leave an opening for hope in "tomorrow." Thank you for sharing this offering, Gwen. Love and peace to you.

Excellent. With a few very well chosen words, you have echoed the emotion that is shaking every caring human being in this country -- indeed, around the world -- in the wake of 911 and Katrina. . .among other horrible tragedies. Many are feeling far worse -- or too numb to feel --and we can only hope that the little help we can give will lift their spirits and make their lives ever so slightly easier. THANK YOU.

Oh but we do have the beauty of this spiritually graceful and lyrical poem. And we have the hope that inspired the poet to pen these dynamic lines:-)
