Await Hunker Down

And to stare into the eye
Of the storm and not
Buckle panic nor flee
But smile and grit
With teeth barred and
Angry hiss
As the winds howl
And the rain dances
Upon the edge of vision
Await
Hunker down
Hold on to stout beams and loved ones
For your supports
Ideas and fond remembrances and dreams
And to stare into the eye
Of the storm
With calm heart
That is courage my love
That is hope
Hold on
