Ripples of Stream

I wrote this poem re: the Salmon River, an oversized stream meandering through parts of Truro, Nova Scotia. I watched its natural glitter that escaped the destruction - thousands of trees all around me, from a terrible storm which left us several days ago. It was the worst ecological rain & wind storm ever felt over our province. ALL Truro stores, restaurants & 100 acre park in a catchment area of 25,000 people, had no electricity for up to  eight nights. No one injured although huge and smaller trees covered roads including broken power poles in the dozens. Phew - that stream of faith ie Salmon River inspired me. -Richard LP.

Thank you, Rhiannon. We were smacked hard by ths hurricaine that swept through USA - Fiana. -Richard
