'The Return of the Tanka Queen,' Kim Rodrigues! The last two lines are an expansive canvass, ever-stretching-outward, surrounding that city under the umbrella. Brilliant! :) Gershon

God is our umbrella. Pray not for wind though. Blessings.

Indeed, the whole world is "in His hands." I have a card at my desk with two penguins facing each other. The penguin on the right has a huge, orange fish on his head. The penguin on the left says: "Relax, God's in charge!" As I watch our world spin in chaos, I find great comfort in the wisdom of that card! Thank you for this beautiful reminder that God never lets go! Gratitude to you for this tanka. Blessings of autumn joy to you!
