Praying For Mercy

Inspired by today's post at Thrilling Wonder, one of the most addictive blogs in the blogosphere.

 

And our hands were reaching up into the storm
praying for mercy. Under a burning sky
our hands were reaching up. Below us
under lighted roofs the town was huddled
praying for mercy. The sky was burning.
White dragons danced in the smoke.
Then there was light,
a new day
and a new creation.
