Storm Brewing

Storm clouds brewing on the northern horizon

Listening to the news grieves this heart.
Voices cry warnings of a storm brewing
somewhere, every day, every moment.

I want to turn away from it all,
cover my ears, bury my head in the sand, 
still storm clouds rise on the far horizon.

With diligence I stay alert listening to the
thunder of lies, watching for lightning bolts of anger,
each a sign of the growing storms of hatred.

Oh, to wake from this nightmare, to discover
instead, a sunlight of love rising on the horizon,
offering us the gift hope. This is my prayer!
