rainfall creates wreckage
on sleepy country towns
the river submerges roads and houses
they're searching for higher ground
the pubs and the stores on Main Street
all normally alight
are drowning in Muskoka river
through water they must fight
back roads are gone
all washed away
the Big East River is rising
state of emergency declared
the town will survive
for help is soon arriving

My hometown is currently flooded, but thankfully our house is on higher ground and has not been damaged. Parts of the downtown area are flooded by the river and the outskirts of town have seen a lot of damage. Sending positive energy to the people with houses near the water <3
