Poems that affect our Nation
Love, After the Storm
~Of Katrina
A devastating rage, minds can’t comprehend
Transformed three different states
Flooding houses, families and friends.
Indirectly we are one
One nation under God
The effect it has on many
When aches overpowers the heart
The wrath of Katrina’s Storm
Cities and lives were lost.
Additional love is required
Because pain was the cost
A world wide connection
Brings hope to lost souls
Giving more of yourself
May stop tomorrow from being cold.
The aftermath of a storm
Is when reality take place
Releasing God’s love and support
Towards the future we must face.
Leaning to our own understanding
Is something we must not do
Have faith and truly believe,
~SURVIVORS ~
That God, has a purpose for you
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him, I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honour him. Psalm 91:5
