Cut and Run

Ukraine, our friends
tied to adoptions.
no one answers the phone.
Have the adults cut
and run. God help the orphans.
One was waiting, hoping,
knowing they were coming
soon. But now, we pray.

A Very worrying period of our lives, first the pandemic, and then a threat of WW111. It must be heartbreaking for you and causing the whole world great Anxiety. The Spanish flu came just before WW1 - is history repeating itself? hugs and blessings Jennifer.

And pray we will, Kim. His heart is inclined towards the orphan and the widow and the poor in spirit. Ukraine is going to have plenty of those soon :-(
