A Poem And A Reminder

 To start off, I want to remind everyone that this Friday we will begin 30 days 30 Psalms.

The following is a poem that I wrote published in the Winter 1999 edition of Footprints Magazine.

The Unseen Destroyer

Banging the rickety feeder,
that rests on a half-dead elm,
bird seed scatters donward,
along with its former home.

In that crippled elm,
the woven home of a thrush
tears helplessly apart
as the occupants flee to safety.

Clanging in a broken chorus,
the windmill turns oblong,
bent and mangled
by an invisible force.

Without a thought,
the havoc is unleashed
upon the helplessly victims
dangling in the breeze.
