Harvey,
You came so
hard with forces so ferocious
In a manner
we rarely see, you stormed Texas
With shivers
you put Louisiana on edge
You ravaged
Houston, flooded the streets and blasted her flora
The rampant
storm that rendered the houses rustling
And the
people homeless, for safety scampering
Shelters were
shattered by you, children crying
And miles
and bridges in rumbles you left
Harvey,
You broke
the addiction of Addicks
She spilled
her waters that boats plied the watery roads
And the cars
of Houston were submerged like submarine
Monuments were
moved ashore by your rivers
Harvey,
Austin and
Washington could not but answer your thunderous call
As compassion
flurried from all of earth
Prayers and
vigils from distant lands to strengthen
The gallantry
of men and women on ground, lives to rescue
Harvey,
You have left
a trail and a tale that will long be searched and told
Now you must
go away and let alone
The city of
my love that hosted my feet for four hours
When she
admitted me to the nation that put her trust in God
Harvey,
You have
done your part, now the people shall arise
Their bits
to do with courage; and steel themselves
To turn the
gory story that Harvey has told
To a tale of
glory the world shall ever tell
