What A Week #Poetry #AmWriting

What a week
One hundred sixty-eight hours
Ten thousand eighty minutes
Six hundred thousand eight hundred seconds

Fear
Shock
Chaos
Disbelief
Loneliness
Sadness
Anxiety
Worry
Numb

You cannot begin to fathom

Monday’s Word of The Day was: Fathom.

I had the longest week of my life from Monday, October 1 through Sunday, October 7. It was horrific and I hope to never have to experience anything like it again.

I have needed to trust Jesus and cling to him more than ever before in my entire life. It is very hard. There is still so much unknown.

  1. I enjoyed how you broke down time into smaller units of measure, while increasing each subsequent line in a fun, clever way. But I do hope this next week you face can be measured in larger, less painful moments.

    • Thanks Ethan. I am glad you liked it. Thanks for the well wishes too. I appreciate the follow, I know you are a pretty active reader. I hope to have some more positive poems in the next few days 😁
