Sensing danger 2

Isn't it amazing how we know things?
Isn't it amazing how we sense things?
A wonderful holiday in Bright in 1974
Families enjoying the pool at the park
Caravans & tents lined up along the lines
Gum trees providing shade amid the sun
Suddenly the mums are gathering the children
Herding them toward the owners house
Ushering them inside to safety before trouble comes
All is still & quiet: just before the storm
A massive gust of wind blows in: branches moving
The tree falls upon the caravan: a man is killed
The children are safe inside the house: thank God!
Just across the road another tree falls: crushing a car
If Marilyn had not parked else where?
(Another car had taken her place beside the tent)
It would have been her car crushed under that tree!

  1. We all need to understand that we are given insights into what is right & wrong in this world: we just need to be "tuned in" & then of course we need to heed the warning signs as they are given to us! Pay attention! The signs are there! Heed the messengers!
