The AnswerOnce By the Pacific
The shattered water made a misty din.
Great waves looked over others coming in,
And thought of doing something to the shore
That water never did to land before.
The clouds were low and hairy in the skies,
Like locks blown forward in the gleam of eyes.
You could not tell, and yet it looked as if
The shore was lucky in being backed by cliff,
The cliff in being backed by continent;
It looked as if a night of dark intent
Was coming, and not only a night, an age.
Someone had better be prepared for rage.
There would be more than ocean-water broken
Before God’s last Put out the light was spoken.

Our family will be keeping your family in our prayers and thoughts.
What John said– I hope that whatever has happened will have the best possible outcome. God be with you.
I pray all is well.
I pray all is well and is there is another crisis, I pray it goes away quickly. I will keep you in my prayers and you and Paradise lost have been added to a prayer chain I am part of. God blessings for you sir.
Prayers for you and your family. Thinking of your mom especially.
Prayers also.
Praying without ceasing for you and yours.
Do what needs be done. I can wait, and I expect all your other readers can, too.
We look at you as part of our family because we read you daily. Our offer still stands. If you need ANYTHING we are there!! You are in our thoughts and especially in our prayers.
Thank you all and bless you all for your prayers. Mom has had a fall but is not in any critical danger. She bumped her head and is being held for observation with a very positive prognosis. All other systems are fine. More than that we do not know at this time.
Prayers needed still. I’ll update here when we know more.
Oh no, that’s trouble not wanted.
Hope that observation and tests go well for your Mother.
Is that a photo of your Mother at the top?
There’s a certain point at which humans should be able to put on bumper pads or a bumper
suit not unlike the pillsbury dough boy. We need them. Our wavering balance systems require them. Yet where are they? Too many folks to busy inventing and marketing $1,000 phones and other gadgets that distract us.
I am sending out a woo woo ish protective bubble to all things Mom and Gerard. Remember to breathe. Deeply. All will be well.
Prayers for you and Mama…and may HE give you peace and healing.
…and from here as well.
God Bless.
