Helene Poems - Poems about Helene

this world, connected by signals cell phones, towers impregnated by vibrations mild colors, flames rising from the hopes hues stolen by the edges of a heart, who hears the wind in the trees, the struggle the need of raindrops, poignant stroking the last of the moments before Helene spoke her war with creation a war that left time off its foundation –...

Shouting, over the sounds of rain, feelings more commanding than the season’s pain erasing the hope from hearts, but who’s to blame for the night’s lure in pieces of yesterdays wondering, unclear which prayer to plead will the season tell her story in dark – it feels insane no more moments – winds tell the still night burning with fires more potent...

remember, the scent of hope after the storm, the hurricane who blew in rains, shaming earth so the still floods raged around us, flowing rivers to cover us in pain. remember, the still morning after when time stood, quietly reflecting the night gone, lost like a prayer fading into the skies, heaven stirred by the entreaties from hearts terrified. remember, the silence who melted away all...

She lost her home She lost her ‘stuff’ She lost heart – but was still tough. When all was said and done, She reached out to the Son - She knew some tears and fears But love would sing into her ears. While night seemed so hard, Hope shined through her lifeguard. She lost her home She lost her ‘stuff’ She lost heart – but remained...

Courage is not having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don’t have the strength. –Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919), 26th President of the United States A year of heartbreak, soundless as the stars who glitter, surreal, remembering while we make our wishes, feel the darkness surrounding, gentling at best… the beautiful kiss of a lonely death, fatalities...

Buckets of rain, boisterous as thunder, wrecked September’s farewell, flooding the mountains, the hills, the rivers and creeks. Wild and livid, coloring the air in streaming tears, erasing the faintest feel of a hopeful prayer. The moment spun out of control and I could feel my heart breaking, my mind quaking, my spirit shaking, as...

I don’t feel strong – my soul, it grieves I don’t feel wise – my spirit sighs, then weeps I don’t feel sure – my heart cries out I don’t feel resilient – my life is but a breath… Once in a while, I remember how she screamed, The storm of the century – the storm Who scattered the trees, tore...

Some lost their lights, the brilliance Electricity, burning through the night Inviting, inspiring, igniting our lives. Some lost their water, the gentle flow Source of hope and wonder, graceful Moving over the spirit, sweet fulfillment. Some lost their ability to communicate Cell phones grew quiet, the internet – silent Most felt some anxiety, lonesome, isolated. Some lost their food as frozen staples melted While cold...

Tears keep falling, My feelings, sprawling The linemen, their calling… Winds were still blowing, My heart and soul, knowing, Despite the storm, there’s flowing… Love beyond what I can conceive, Love that comforts those who grieve, Love that lasts so I believe… Each lineman has amazing drive. His heart, his soul – made to survive, Residents so thankful, power he’ll revive. The donations, they just keep...

Helene Miracle Man 10/2/2024 A lifetime of work taken away in a flash. Only clothes on their backs, and very little petty cash. No food, or water, and many already question why me? But God always has reasons beyond what man can see. First it was the severe wind then unimaginable rain. The life they’ll now be facing will be considered inhumane. Others will give what they can justifying...

While my heart beats, rhythms of gentle Silent, yet burning, beneath these Blue Ridges, An ache, a pain, a troubled heart, wandering In the last moments of a thought, just before sunrise, Helene, the storm who raged through my life, Penetrating the skies, erasing the star’s hesitant breath, Vomiting doubt, darkness, despair – a path of fear, Wherever she scared the intimate...

Helene, you stormed through Appalachian way from the gulf coast, you brought a merciless wrath, a hurricane in the early autumnal mountains. Mudslides, flooding, high winds, driving rain, helpless people swept away. You had fierce scorn, you screamed and rattled our windows. A hellion of force, Blue Ridge recovery, slow, but hopeful. Weeping as the waters recede. Some loss of lives, some missing. Homes destroyed, the abiding Lord, His presence...
