I can't imagine what they're going through. But my prayers are with them.


Poem Artwork

 

Call Upon Thee!
 
The experiences I’ve had in my life were many that’s for sure.
Trials from childhood, marriage, children and illnesses with no cure.
But the terror of a storm that just hit the Gulf coast.
Is something I’ve never known and hopefully neither has most.
 
There are no words to express to them how badly I feel.
For its one of those experiences to me is surreal.
Most of the time I can say, “I know how you feel.”
But this time it wouldn’t be true and the words seem unreal.
 
Unless you’ve walked in someone else’s shoes,
There’s no way you could understand, or have a clue.
All you can do is pray for them and for all they have lost.
Give them a shoulder to cry on, be there for them at all cost.
 
To loose everything you’ve worked for your whole life long,
And to loose it in an instant, seems terribly wrong.
The feelings are so alien to me and I don’t understand.
How this could happen in this great land.
 
My prayers go out to those affected by this catastrophe.
And God give them strength to call upon thee.
 
Written by,
Bonnie May

BRAVO!

I wrote a similar poem about Christian friends who were judging me - "Let he who is without sin - cast the first stone...."

I also been through Hurricaine Andrew - I feel your pain.

Fine words written by you, Bonnie, I feel for them too but never experienced that kind of loss either. You said it in such a nice way and your throughts were so good. You got a good working brain to put out a splendid piece of work like this. Loved it**********

I hope never to be in a full fledged hurricane. I've been in remnants of several, but they were nothing compared to the real thing. I've been in four tornadoes; that was scary enough; I can't imagine a hurricane, which is so much larger than any ol' tornado! Excellent prayer; I join you in prayer for these poor people! Very well penned, Bonnie; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

such a well written, unfortunately true poem. I've never been in a hurricane, but have friends that have, and I can't imagine it.
