A personal experience during the terror attack

Intensely terrorizing.
News Warning.
Hamas will attack Tel Aviv and surrounding areas next.
Only one thought.
Our children.
Feeling unprepared.
Sirens begin.
It’s 9 p.m.
Sirens astound.
One minute.
Find cover.
Missiles.
Explosions.
Iron dome interceptions. (those we want to hear)
Overwhelmingly loud.
Too many times.
And again.
It’s 3 a.m.
Wailing Sirens, Explosions and then the Iron Dome Blasting.
My blood pressure-a big problem.
199/120-dangerous
What to worry about first?
Intense shaking.
My husband tried to stop the shaking.
Kids maintain contact.
One with baby doll in tow taking cover in the stairwell.
We crouch in sealed safe room.
It will end.
Eventually.
Pray and Pray more.
Need to find a focus.
A solution to stop the madness.
Thinking of my baby grandchild.
Energy from a baby can conquer it all.
She did it.
Her charm.
Her genuine smile.
Her happiness.
Her Calmness.
Her giggles.
Her deep belly laugh.
Her magnetic eyes.
That face!
My mind uncluttered.
She saved me.
In the middle of all the terror.
I smile.
Blessed.
Grateful.
Blessed.
