willows yet linger
weeping over scorched, cracked earth
once underwater

Will be praying for Joe's mom my friend. What city in Kentucky? My grandmother moved from Greenville, MS to Owensboro to live with my uncle when she could no longer take care of herself. I have been there quite a few times...By the way, I owe this placement to you because you helped me shorten and compact it...Remember?
