Earthquake Hits Home

by Maude Curtis

We hear of all the earthquakes
that seem so far away.
We knew no one in peril
until yesterday.

My sons' foreign exchange student
a well loved, fostered young man
loved as a son, brother and grandson,
now in danger we can't explain.

The Chilian quake has took a toll
the scences we view are grimm.
we wait and sit so helpless,
waiting for news from him.

So pray that Pate' is safe
and God shields him with His hand,
may he and his family get safely through
the horrid devistation of their land.

Maude- he'll be ok. G-d will look out for him. He is doing what he must do. I'm a mother and a grandmother.I feel for you. May G-d be with him. I feel your pain- excellent write!
