During this storm,hope for our homeless, hope for our strays


Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm
I know; it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over so they say
It'll rain a sunny day
I know; shinin' down like water.

[Chorus:]
I want to know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know
Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard
I know; been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know; it can't stop, I wonder.

If the TV shows are accurate at all then they are in trouble because of living in abandoned tunnels. Not to mention old abandoned buildings that are probably at risk of collapse.

But of course no one is talking about them. It's not sexy ratings garnering stuff.

When did we lose interest in human interest stories?

Red Cross will be a good place to send donations the next few days.

Thanks for that DainBramaged. I can't even imagine being homeless in what is coming, and what has already hit. They need each and every one of our help. My thoughts are with them.
