Joplin Missouri Tornado May 22, 2011

This is another poem pieced together from the quotes of an online news story. I didn't change any of the wording. I just picked the parts that spoke to me and put them in an order that I hope speaks to you.


Waiting on God

There is so much sadness here,
A 17-month-old infant was lost.
He's in a better place,
Waiting on God.

Determined to overcome all this.
Thoughts and prayers,
Laugh despite loss,
Alive and well.

We've been looking.
