mist rising from sodden earth sun beams drawing our eyes to glimmering leaves. and we listened to the stories houses released from their foundations toppling into the river cows abandoned young children rescued by helicopter and other stories a feast gifted to those stranded 600 hands damming a pump station safe houses offered to strangers voices raised about climate change about supporting local about coming together and there were other voices voices being silenced water sacred yet poured out crying to protect our watershed to protect the rivers my mind reeled searching for clarity "be the change you want to see" so the saying goes so we tended the soil we donated toothpaste we shared borscht with friends we wondered about farmers in other countries that might need refuge we bought seeds we lit a candle for those who are sitting in the depths of this loss
