Dealing With It

The train of news
pulls into town
this time letting
everyone down

cries of "what will it be,
and what will become?
our plans are all ruined!"
our ease is undone

"give us this day
our daily bread!"
are more than words
just idly said

my daughter cried
like someone had died
her grief is real
and too new to heal

but evening comes,
and morning too;
putting 'deal with it'
on my list of to-do

qn - thank you - I really like that you stop in and comment, so positive.

pat - thanks - this was it for today so pushed it out a few places.

This one is based on up-to-the-moment reality since a key change in business direction took place this week, and lots of us are sorting out what to do. It will be ok eventually...
