Of this I must write
Weeping, screams, terror
In the eyes
And
The love,
The singing
The walking, touching, hugging,
The laughter
A cosmic disruption
Exposing molten hate
Only love, a soothing compress
On the infected gashes in our universe
Of this I must write.

I can feel the suffering. So sorry about the Twin Cities. I’m from St. Paul originally.
It makes me so sad, and you captured the explosive nature of all of it.

Thank you dear Sandy. I thought i had responded last night but i don’t see my response. It is beyond imagination how awful it all is. An assault on human life and human dignity. Thank you for your concern and care. I didn’t know you were originally from St. Paul. Be safe dear one.
Linnea
Brilliant Janet. Exposing the juxtaposition of molten hate and soothing love. Love wins always even though it is impossible to see the outcome of what is happening in Minnesota right now. Praying for a blanket of love over the Twin Cities. Praying the lights of the light carriers shine very bright and strong. Thank you for your words.
HealingJourneys
Thank you Linnea! I join you in those same prayers.
