I’m sitting in a patch of sun
And kind of taking stock,
Feeling lucky after hearing
Of so many still in shock.
Homes destroyed by a tornado,
People stranded on the road,
Cancellations of events
As rivers filled and overflowed.
All my kith and kin are safe, with just
Some minor floods to clean,
Nothing like the damage suffered
In the videos I’ve seen.
As for me, I’m disappointed;
Grandkids should be on their way
With their parents for a visit,
But it won’t take place today.
Still, tomorrow they’ll be coming;
Got my toes and fingers crossed
And right now it’s cool and sunny
So the day will not be lost.
