Prayer

My home.
The house we recently built, 
the community we have come to love.
The schools and hospitals
the businesses and the restaurants.

My community.
The beautiful green spaces,
the parks and the gardens.
The slough and the sanctuary,
the gifts of Mother Nature.

My friends.
The circles we have formed,
the camaraderie we enjoy,
The support and the love
the fun and the sharing.

My family.
The separation across miles.
the east and the west,
The north and the south 
the web of love that connects us.

May the grace of G-d be stronger than the fierceness of Irma.
May we be joined in love, wrapped in support and comfort.
May we live long and strong and build again what we stand to lose.
