Hagar

.,~*~;;;~*~:::~*~;;;~*~:::~*~;;;~*~:::~*~;;;~*~:::~*~;;;~*~,. Alone in the dry, hot desert with a small boy Weary from a long journey, Abandoned by her baby's daddy Destitute, thirsting to death Crying in despair to her God A voice spoke to her and she saw life A stream of water, flowing to salvation For her and her son, in the middle of the Dry dust, moisture sprung to new life .,~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~*~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~,.

And NOW from those abandoned by man and blessed by God, great nations (?? Iraq and Iran??) have descended. Sadly...jealously took its toll then, and it still does. But now, jealousy is coupled with greed. And that is life, sometimes. Very good poem. Smiles
