Thanks to Amanda/Kavita 4 The Inspirations,
Week 18 Poetry Potluck Theme: Language, Signs, and Symbols
Amanda’s place is flooded, Prayers…Pay her a visit here:buttercup600
There are floods in an Australia City,
Many a home are destroyed, what a pity.
This is a troubled time,
It’s hard to make poetry rhyme.
Some speak of the language of hope,
While others deal with the aftermath of death;
Faith shall be the surviving rope,
Show mercy to the victims, I confess.
If you are reading this,
You shall feel their pain instead of bliss.
Please send your love to someone of tragic,
Your SIGNS of caring will do the magic.
Life is unpredictable,
Bless the survivors, be visible.
When death threats humans this close,
Send them a fresh rose,
Spread sunshine to brighten their day,
Let compassion lead the way!

Any natural disaster, any war, anything at all that causes rampant suffering tears the fabric of lives, leaves stitched scars sometimes visible, sometimes not. It anguishes the hearts of all to see suffering…my heart goes out to Brisbane, AU and all areas in the wakes of the floods there. Australia is a beautiful country full of wonderful, resonate, resourceful people, who have great humor and strength. May your strength and your humor carry you through this devastation, and all your furred friends as well.
Thanks so much my friend…heartfelt!! oxo
the country is lovely indeed…
😉
Indeed a very thoughtful and moving poem.
Thanks.

The weather has been terrifying, hasn’t it? And I agree, global poetry brings us all closer. Thanks.

when thinking of those who suffer from incurable diseases or got hit by natural disasters, we feel more fortunate and
count our blessings while show some mercy to others…
