I Saw I heard the rain like slamming chain Striking on my window pane Reeking with a wind blown blind To seek an entrance to my mind Charge on charge to smash my walls Powered like a water falls Seeking out the weak and frail To force an entrance to my jail And there I stood in the dark The light were out was ne’er a spark And fear enwrapped a shroud of cloud That shriveled up my shield of proud Then lightening struck and lit a seem That mocked my mind the worst of dream And brought the salty brine of sweat That changed my skin from dry to wet And there within it’s spleen of goal It flood green fields within my soul |

Very nice poem, Seymour. If you are in the path of the hurricane, head for higher ground. |

This is powerful, dear Seymour! It's what happens when we can't stop fear. And Katrina seems so frightening in her wild attack! May it quickly be over! Stay safe! Love and hugs. Margherita |
