~THE SILENT WIND~
I feel the wind hurting across my face
The glass window broken, tearing down the
lace.
A tornado has struck, with no warning to me
The Silent Wind has struck unmercifully.
The Silent Wind may be so deceiving too
What if I could hear it like other people do?
But I'm in a world of silence and of fear
Danger lurches, but I don't know it is near.
I'm crying for help now, as sirens must roar
The police are crashing through my front
door.
The Silent Wind has yielded terror and maim
Thankfully, I am safe, and not in any pain.
How I look ahead when there will be a time
No more tornadoes, a promise of no more
crime.
The Bible tells of such wonderful hope
So with the Silent Wind, I now try to cope.

~WORRY~
Perhaps you have heard it said?
Worry never climbed a hill
Worry never paid a bill
Yes, it is true:
Worry never helps your skill
Worry goes against your will
Worry could make someone ill
Worry might cause you a chill
And also:
Worry did not help poor Jill
Worry never stopped the will
Worry needs an anti-pill
Worry abounds on Knob Hill
So:
Worry needs to come to nil
Worry never dreams fulfill
