This rain it falls on my heart –
The washing out of humanity
haunts my soul
drenching me completely
I hope for a reprieve
I plead for relief
wondering when the floodwaters
will retreat
Until then all I can do is endure
praying each drop
won’t signal our end
The area in my country is currently experiencing a major environmental event with intense flooding, loss of life and evacuations. I am safe and not in danger. But with this and the war that’s happening in Ukraine, I heart is heavy today, so I turn to poetry. I turn to poetry to help me process the weight of everything I see.
Secret Thoughts Within 
I’m glad you turned to poetry, Bree. It’s a lovely write. Stay safe, my dear friend. 🤍
