Notes About The Poem

Michael, the farmer, may be facing bankruptcy. Praying for him.

Hurrican Michael the Aftermath

the jealous field hand
supplanting the cotton farm
deposits debris

Very nicely written Kim. It is so hard to see when this weather takes so much away.

Well written Kim, so sad to see the damage it's caused, for some it will take years to recover. Tom.

Creative metaphor, Kim, and aptly applied. My former neighbors in Tallahassee cannot be reached by phone right now, but they were prepared to wait out the storm at home with a generator. Such a sad event! Hugs, Carolyn

I saw the photos of the devastation this morning and it is heart breaking. So many have lost so much. Nicely expressed thoughts Kim
