Poem
On August 29, it rained 
Never knew that it would change 
Everything that they ever had is gone 
Tell me how do they move on
A hurricane came through and tore
 the state that they adored
So this to you is my tribute
I want to send my prayers 
To Texas 
I feel so sad 
For you to loose everything you had
A state washed away 
In less than a day 
Seeing the elderly stuck
Nothing could be done 
They were trying to get help
They could barely help themselves 
You saw the water covering them
It was a dreadful sight
People dying left and right
Having to get on air mattresses
And in the fridge
To swim to safety
Children scared 
No where to go
The cars and buses and transits are gone 
Nothing to call your own
How do you hold on 
And rebuild
Your wound is open 
Please give yourself time to heal
People busting out windows 
Just to save lives 
Why is it no one hears there cry
Or was it simply 
Nothing that we could do
But wait for the after math
And trying to figure out the equation
Of what happens now 
People on boats , looking for hope 
Heads are down 
Bodies are found
Alot of people making donations to rebuild
Outside of money 
What can we really give 
We can travel 
And go and help 
For they can't do it by themselves
Let them know that people do care
And they are in the way there 
Reach out and lift up your their heads
Give them encouragement
Inspiration
Let them know what they see now is not there final destination
Give them hugs show them love 
Let them feel unique
If they are down help them stand on their feet
Millions if people don't have food or clothes 
Let's come together as a nation and take control
Take a stand and volunteer
Let them no that the love is here 
People have to start over 
From the beginning
They felt like they've lost 
Let them know they're still winning
Even if for now they have to relocate
Let them know things will get better
Texas in a economic crisis
They're all making sacrifices to
Readjust
This makes you appreciate life so much
What do you do 
When there's nothing but rain
Know that this is a testimony for all the pain
That this storm caused
You still are up even when you fall
I hope and pray
That through the day
They  find your inner strength
And be strong 
Through this great depression 
They still hold on
It won't belong
And even if it does 
We will come together and show love 
To the elderly it's going to be ok, you all taught us alot to keep the faith
To the people who lost all 
We are here to catch you when you fall
United as a nation 
Is right now where we should stand
And as Micheal Jackson
Would say reach out and touch somebody hand
This is our chance
To rebuild 
Let's give our time and help
Because that's what they need 
Let's help feed their stomachs and their spirits
They need inspiration
Let's give it
We need to help
They are mentally emotionally and physically starving 
This is my tribute to
The victims and survivors of Hurricane Harvey
And as the scripture says 
This too shall pass and trouble won't last
