Prayers for Texas

Texans suffered

subzero frost

scavenged for food

abandoned homes,

sadly, lives lost.

People loss power

endured the chill

those who didn’t

shocked by higher

energy bill.

Cold wreaks havoc

ice hangs from fans

Cruz strikes a nerve

flies to Cancun,

vacation plans.

Cristian Pavon, 11, died from hypothermia

Little boy sleeps,

Cristian’s his name,

found dead in bed

everyone faults,

no one takes blame.

Garage door closed

mom tries to warm

let’s car idle

family dies

during the storm.

People starving

store shelves sit bare

food is wasted,

no Frigidaire

just frigid air.

People displaced

movement begun,

collecting food

money, water

huge donation.

President Biden declares emergency in Texas

Biden knows his

response can’t wait

calls on FEMA

Lone Star claimed a

disastrous state.

Author: Don't Forget the Half

You know, writing about myself has always been a challenge. It's not that I'm unsure of who I am but rather I like people to discover me on their own. I will tell you this much - I'M REAL! I guess that's all you need to know for a first approach; stick around and you'll understand the power behind that statement. What I do is another story! I embrace life hoping to live my purpose as a mother, daughter, sister, confidante and friend; I laugh, cry, and support; I admire, like and love; I listen, read and write. Most importantly, I have faith and thank God for all of me. My intent is to inspire others using my gifts and "Don't Forget the Half" reminds me to cast nothing aside. Want to know more? Discover along with me as I live my life out loud. View All Posts
