With all these storms and winds we have been having lately, I am thinking of the poor souls who have had their homes and lands flooded by dirty water.

Please spare a thought for us today;
Where rain and flood have come to play.
It’s caused us so much woe and strife,
We will not let it change our life.

You see it’s caused us so much pain,
To struggle in this wind and rain.
A face of grief is what we see,
Where once a  joyous soul would be.

For now we’ve lost our home, our ground,
Despair and gloom is all around.
Please save us from this world of pain,
Then we can live our lives again.

    Very good. My dad’s home was flooded a few years ago, so I understand the feelings here.
