Can Love rise higher than the level of the flood?
Can Peace move in on the wings of a dove? Can Hope ride restless winds so strong to reach those who have lost their song? Will we rise? Will we rise? Rise to share our lullaby? Will we rise? Will we rise? Hold those hands up high? When we see that smile return then we can understand the power in all this weakness— the power in all this struggle— the power in the warmth of helping hands. ©jtl05 ·······  ······· |

Hello Jan.
 Thanks so much for posting this poem that you emailed me earlier this morning. Your soft-rhymes really  and your message is so poignant.I do hope we all can find "the power in the warmth of helping hands." I made a donation Friday through my workplace who is matching all employee contributions to the Red Cross. I hope it will help, even if only a small amount.  Humbly, Lori  ······· ·······"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door.
