I watched the floods down in the Valley <br /> from the safety of the hills. <br /> It was harsh and hard and nasty without any <br /> pretty hills. <br /> The rain poured on the country and the <br /> had some breaks. <br /> The people ran before the waters-to hide for safety's sake. <br /> Our own roads were full of pot holes <br /> with rocks and other things <br /> But in looking at the valley and <br /> the problems that flood brings <br /> I'll watch that problem from afar! <br /> And stay away from where they are. <br /> May the Lord have mercy on those washed out farms, <br /> and keep those people from serious harm. <br /> And when the day comes and the flood goes away. <br /> May the land bloom one more as in better days.<br /><br />Catherine G.
