It's a hard time and a...different time to say the least. For some, this whole experience is new. But we can all do this together if we just have faith and trust in another.
I read one time in "This I Believe" (a book where people - like Albert Einstein, Warren Christopher, and just normal people like Sarah Adams - write what they believe) a man who wrote - he goes by the name of William O. Douglas - "Then one day in a moment of great crisis, I came to understand the words of my father: 'If I die, it will be glory; if I live, it will be grace.' That was [my father's] evening star - the faith in a power greater than man...we need the faith of our father's...the faith that dedicates us to something bigger and more important. Only if we have faith will we be able guide the destiny of nations, in this the most critical period of world history. This I believe." 652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCDwmnj0a0
I also read, in the same book, Warren Christopher's beliefs. He believed that there will always be moments "when one must rely upon the good faith and judgement of others. So, while each of us faces - at one time or another - the prospect of driving alone down a dark road, what we must learn with experience is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of trust."
And, with that, here's my poem:
The sand beneath my feet652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg9AC7Cx6S
Stolen away from me652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxVbh1ct3O
The sun nowhere to be seen652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9bW24MJvK
Rain pounding on my face652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAwWrCVOqg
I look and I look but I see nothing652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVmnjLLRNY

The sea with its merciless tail and monstrous teeth652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUhaHql37v
Has stolen away a piece of me652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuCzebpQgB
The horizon is fading, my hope is breaking652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRFiWrRTKv
I lift my head up to the sky, trying to glimpse a piece of Him652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21L7ZLH5Zh
Is He there? Is He actually looking, is He actually with me?652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7I2VAkhYm
Then I look to the sea where the sails had disappeared652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr8Y4pTPaS
I look to sea that had swallowed up my love
I look back to the heavens and pray652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBE0WZ4bj6
Again and again and again652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3b5EkCLdSP
I cry and grieve, but I feel my heart mending652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2lQBlKRUI
Not with hope, but with understanding and faith652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBKHqMtBiy
The rain stops, the waves calm652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpbK3uLuvn
The sand beneath my feat652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy13nwlSm3t
Carried beneath the waves652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmIY9mv6P7
The sun on my face652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhoiqhSzSv
A golden glow in a lavish haze652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xnm1R7bo9
And my Father above who is indeed there652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCqWMRcTih
Though my love is gone, my Father is there652Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmWMw8yKVS
He will always be there
This is not for the those in India, however. I wrote this poem for those who have lost a loved one. A child, a friend, a husband, a wife, a brother, a sister.
