Perpetual Safety
The eye of the storm was red
and glowering
like the eye of a man's
singed with anger.
Images of dust and rubble
were forming in my mind
because the wrath of nature
was about to fall on us.
I lay on my stomach
to protect my face against the storm.
It was then I heard
the rustle of a soft robe,
and I felt Him whisper
into my soul:
Be at peace my friend,
in me is perpetual safety.
