America's Big Freeze Thoughts

As unprecedented  weather
sweeps across the freezing land
my thoughts and heart goes out
to every woman child and man
To all soupers who are feeing the colds 
chilling bite 
after seeing the terrible pictures on TV
I pray you all be safe
both day and night.

Please spare a thought
for the old
for the ones on the streets without a home
Help them to keep warm have food
and make them not feel so alone.

One thing I do know about Americans
you pull together in a crisis well
praise to you and medical staff
and rescue workers who risk their live's for others
I wish them well.


''One extreme to another. as America freezes. Australia  has record high temperatures of hot weather.
My thoughts and prayers are with them too. and hope they get no more bush fires.''
