A powerful call that we not allow ourselves to forget that we are long ways from recovering from the devastation. This poem itself, I feel, was/is one of the miracles needed.

Once a town like New Orleans has been raped by this devastating storm and then FEMA...it's hard to see her creep back a little at a time. I feel the pain and the fear of those friends I have in NO. They say she's never going to be the same again. Maybe not in our lifetime.
Thanks .

Superb remembrance Karla. We all should mourn for it is the worst catastrophe our country has seen,along with 9/11. They are still in dire straits! God help them!

Yes, it seems it has caused problems all the way around-I've heard that in Texas, the crime rate has really risen in some of the towns the misplaced people went to-crazy situation indeed.
Anniversaries are so poignant... you relive the day, regardless of 364 intervening... this is so fresh and raw, Karla, it is searing - doubtless as you intend. Miracles aren't ONLY in the domain of God... sometimes we humans have the needful capacity to create a few of our own... Powerful, bless you K xx
We must pray for those poor people on the Gulf Coast; they are still reeling a year later. This should not be; we need to be helping these people (and they need to help themselves as well!)! Gripping, hardhitting write; very well penned! BRAVA!

Rosetta was born in 1909 as the youngest of ten children. The family had more laughter than money and neighbors would knock on their door to ask, "Can we come in and laugh, too?"
Sherlyn Powell opens up about her love and devotion to her family and the overwhelming repercussion when communication breaks down. Heartbroken and distraught she learns to release her prayer and realize with faith God would reunite her family.
