Electric Update Darlene, Lisa Ricci, Debra Brown

I It is a new day, before 2, after midnite It is dark, humid. We have fans, quiet So too refrigerators, AC, & soon, phones As it looks likely, the blackout goes on II It was so hot & humid, I went outside Took a plastic chair, a break from inside Watched faint glows from white farms As steady rain falls, fog it's art performs

Many of u and Lisa Ricci are genuinely concerned about my welfare. I can't thank u enough for positive thoughts. About 2pm, RSA or Rep of S. Africa time, our general area Fort Beaufort gD electric restored. After 26 hours ... I craved hit tea or coffee, most. God is good. I had my victuals & bought fresh data

Sorry, Anil I missed this poem. We've had a lot of power outages this winter due to the ice on lines and trees. We were without power for 3 days twice in 2 weeks, but we have a gas fireplace. We were able to stay at home as it was below zero outside. I'm happy you are Ok! and your power was restored. Praying for you always. Blessings ~ Debra

Dear Anil - I have two fears in life, one is of fire and the other is having no power. Words do not express my thoughts of what is happening around you and others at this time. Truly. Once again you prove to be a man of substance. You and those around you are in my thoughts and prayers to get through this. Please remain safe. May God grace you all to have live in habitable conditions... Shalom and Namaste if that is possible.
