It takes time for a community to rebuild after the storm
Buildings to pick up from the rubble
Bodies to bury laid down beneath as the cost
Nature was paid
The roads broken
No pass to, within, out, nor through
Repair is necessary to attempt from the loss that has come
in its wake
People gone from their families in the abyss of aftermath
Far and wide
Near and right under our noses
Even though they knew of what was to come they set barriers
and sandbags at the doors
Barring down the hatches for the bracing of the storm would
do no good
It hit much to their expectations
Ripped and torn
Flesh and blood for the wager struck in years past
During the storm brush and greens were projected, thrown,
and destroyed
As the sun drew over the horizon
A great view was seen bouncing off the ocean from the
heavens
I could see all the angels smiling down us
Who yesterday were next to us and now they shower us with
their affections
For tomorrow’s dawn will be so great they cannot wait to see
it
