"Aftermath"


“Aftermath”

cji
10/8/16

Winds screaming at times
roaring like a train others
rain constant pounding
seemingly without let-up
power gone unknown
maybe tomorrow maybe
others worse off far
roofs and home lost
buildings collapsed
beach fronts lost
aftermath of storms
clean-ups endlessly
old-timers young now
years in future talking
remembering today
as if only yesterday
meaningful the sorrow
feelings of many gone
aftermath is memory
winds, rains, pounding!
