Typhoon

I am blessed to stay dry in this weather,

With a roof over my head, cozy in this shelter,

Safe within these four walls with my family,

With food, water, and electricity.

It is a privilege to eat today,

Despite calling in sick.

Given these comforts, one shouldn't complain,

While others grieve in pain,

Losing their loved ones to landslides and floods,

Brought by the typhoon.

Father, bless those with the means

To extend their helping hands,

Sharing the blessings

You have graciously given.

Protect everyone from harm,

Let them feel the warmth

of Your love, Oh Lord.
