When an unpredictable event turns life upside down
When the daily rhythm of life cannot be found
A new rhythm is established as you try to reclaim
Whatever normalcy you can, though life is not the same
If you look at the brighter side you see
That you have some free time unexpectedly
To think, breathe, and feel an overwhelming sense
Of gratitude in the midst of misery intense
*
In the aftermath of a natural disaster I find
Myself with some time to unload my mind
In my usual life, I am unable to take things slow
These days there is nowhere to hurry up and go
The luxury of time that I yearn for has been handed down to me
Under the worst of circumstances, but despite this irony
I am inclined to savor it and catch up on rest
This is how precious moments I can utilize best
Passion...unbridled
