This is for the "Seeds" prompt at One Single Impression this week; be sure to stop by there to see all the wonderful poetry.
The area where I live is devastated. While we and many we love were blessed to come thru with only minor damage and a big mess to clean up, many others have had their homes and everything they own washed away. But people are strong, and people have faith, and this area will recover. It may take a while, but this area WILL recover.
I know that with faith,
tho small as a mustard seed,
nothing is hopeless.
* The photo is of a memorial to the victims of the 1900 Hurricane that wiped out Galveston - it stands on the Seawall, which normally has a 17-foot drop-off to the beach, and this picture was taken Friday afternoon as the storm moved our way. It is still standing today.

Amen. Wonderful 'ku!
The area WILL recover. The American people are great at prevailing over travesty. This will be no different.
My heart and prayers go out to everyone who have lost so much.
What an amazing picture. I'm so glad you are home and safe.
Thank you for reminding me of the mustard seed. I am sorry about your experience of the weather! You and those who have suffered so much are in my prayers.
WOW! What an amazing picture!
That is an incredible picture. You should submit it to your local paper.
The picture is stunning....beautiful beautiful post, BS. xoxo
Wish I could say I took the awesome picture, but I didn't. Don't know who did - I'd love to give them credit!
That IS an incredible picture and I think it goes great with your poem. Still thinking of you guys!
What a beautiful poem, in the face of such destruction.
That is so beautiful. You've done a marvelous job with this one.
Your Ike photos are amazing. I am so glad you didn't have more damage. The mustard seed poem is appropriate-- there were many of us praying for you and all the others in the area.
