Today California
is under fire alarm,
But don’t worry
when I think to Emily
My head is full of clouds,
full of raining clouds
that slip towards California
and water the meadows,
so you see
there is no need to be scared
when California is on fire
I just have to think to Emily.

Dear Yann, there is great power in your thoughts about Emily I see ... we CAN co-create our world, no doubt.

I love it!

Love,
Margherita

Yann...

this has an underlying message to me. Emily is not happy, cannot control her emotions, has been terribly hurt, and cries so much...

that even she could put out the fires of California.

As a native Californian, though now re-rooted, that would take a very sad woman to put out all of those flames...

and, as I have an Emily of my own, I had to read this poem, for that reason alone.

But it's a sad poem, and with today's rain where I am, it well fits the mood...

thank you.

hello Margherita, in fact yes our thoughts have great power even they can't put out fires...I wrote this poem during fires in California and needed to give mental help...

Thank you for your comment....
