Deep Thoughts

Far beyond the center of my thoughts,, like an untouchable realm I can see Pieces and facts merging like salt water and sand at the sea Turbulent waves keep rolling, before the sand at shore is wet and dries My heart breaks for so many, watching as the mind slowly dies It's easy to say that all will be fine, enhanced by days of prayer But the truth is people are suffering, many not speaking , they don't dare Deep inside the people, what is happening is known to be wrong Just like in timing sound in the playing of an off-tune song Although I write of seeds from atrocity, in words that are sad We must have courage to stay strong , to overcome what is bad So much has become twisted and now things are upside-down To level all this out, we must unite so that we do not drown An ocean filled with wisdom, that is created together To face the biting storms in different types of weather So swim with courage and strength, reach hands to another - The barren desert is nothing but the other - Heidi Sands 4/28/22
