Flood of Justice
by Wynelda Ann Deaver

The lights shimmer, just out of reach. Calling, always calling me home. I was only allowed to stay out until the lights came on… But that’s been so long now. No one’s left in the house waiting for me.

Somehow, here we all are, together again. Floating now, flood waters lifting me up so I can see the lights reflecting in the water. I’m no longer in the depths of the barn: under the hay loft, under the horses, under the floor and nestled in a quilt hand sewn by Grandma, tucked into the dirt.

Preacher used to talk about The Great Flood. It took over the whole wide world. The flood that brought me out of the barn and placed me with my family again is a small one. I call it The Justice Flood.
