Mother



Dear Mr. Hurricane
please stay out to sea,
keep all the wind & all the rain
far away from me,
the home they had is there no-more
the foundation is all that's left,
it's hard to keep my spirits high
with misery, loss, and death,
Mother nature must be mad-
to change there life this way,
they don't have pictures or even clothes
Much less a place to stay,
the water filled the streets so high
they rescued them by boat,
all they had was what they wore
the rest was left afloat,
Thank you first responders
for help in there time of need,
you put them first-before yourselves
God Bless you all-Indeed.

            By. Michael A Watkins.
