the skies may now appear as night
not much is left erect in sight
sorrow and destruction abound
whenever you look around
while despair may rise its ugly head
many cycles of sunshines still await
as in the hearts of those who here pen
these lines of care and encouragement
you don’t know us, and we, not you
through our minds, though, we unite
with these words, we do embrace
all together what you have to face
you will, thus, begin a promising phase
inside a new home, as you will soon call your place.
