Operation Brotherly Love

Another tragedy arrived today,
loved ones and homes swept away.
We ask why but get no answer,
a given panic like the Signature of Cancer.
All is at peace then here it is,
finding that Mother Nature lives.
Then comes the calm after the storm,
so much gone, so many lives torn.
Tragic moments never do cease,
perhaps it is for love to increase.
Shamefully it takes such tragedies,
to bring together friends and families.
Remember the hurt on those faces,
know and show that love embraces.
Now it is time once again,
to seek out and help a fellow American.
Say your prayers to God above,
thank Him for, "Operation Brotherly Love!"
