Friend Unknown

Listen to the melody of welcomed sunshine
End of storms for today, a rainbow coming
Enduring flooding rains destruction and pain

Justifying living, removing debris, replanting

Ever present compassion, with help and planning
Rivers cresting; now receding to normal standing  
Days for renewing ahead; for some wealth is lost
Others loose loved-ones and gain broken hearts  

May God bless them all!
Young and old

Fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters
Renewing in life and living
I am not sure how, but I know they will
Endure with love and care from others giving
Not just a helping hand, but tears, and funds
Do what ever you can to help an unknown friend...

Very well said JL!

Don't bring me down now,
let me stay here for awhile
You know life's too short,
let me bathe here in your smile.

A beautifully inspired write on more than one level.

Yes this is how we should think and act.

When we are able to see the divine spark in every neighbour, then we know we are brothers and sisters and to help seems just right and natural.

Love,
Margherita
