Tensions rise, storms assault, pressure builds
Home sweet homes destroyed
Roads flood over emotions
Overdue cleansing takes us by surprise
Flood exterminates hate sparks
Subtle change, an almost imperceptible shift
Animosity pulled by the current of murky water
Colors muted, lines blurring
Hostility replaced by desperate yearning
Guidance, a beacon of light
Sun rises, infusing soul
Sisters, brothers lean toward warm embrace
Reliability it serves with stable presence in echoed dawning unique
Opportunity to start anew
Promise of more to come, illuminate, eliminate
Darkness’ attempt to dim the sun’s rays
Extending peace in the world
Power lies in how we respond.
