I'm standing on the rim of the world,
at the far edge of far,
at the far edge of far,
next stop Japan.
I am thinking of you.
The news is bad.
It is very bad.
But the view is beautiful
from here.
I send you
a small postcard
of hope
across the waves.
May it reach you
in time.
May it lift your heart.
May it remind you
of all
we are trying so hard
to save.
May it lift your heart.
May it remind you
of all
we are trying so hard
to save.

ReplyDeleteI am at the "far end of far" reminding you "of all we are trying so hard to save."
ReplyDeleteI love the strength in your words. Beautiful.
I join in your prayer. May something let "them" know they are not far from our thoughts.
ReplyDeleteYes the news is bad.....sending positive thoughts in prayer can help in times like these and we must never discount the possibility of a miracle....Beautiful poem

Oh this is lovely. I too admire “ the far edge of far”. . We all need to send messages of hope now.
