Disaster Quakes!

The ocean beds roar.
The crusts, they crack.
The seas surge, the waters rise,
As if to devour the world.
Hundreds and thousands of unfortunate souls
Drown in a mighty wave,
Thrown over land…
To wash away all,
Sweeping away a civilization.
Cries of help, wringed out of shock,
Leave behind corpses,
For all the world to see,
The numbers rise.
The count, still on...
Fishermen, tourists, inhabitants of the coast,
Now…the faithful departed.
Nature has shown her wrath.
She is mighty and forceful.
We are small, inconsequential.
Do we still dare to prove our power?
The milk of human kindness
Flows out of the human heart,
The people of the world now offer help.
They’ve forgotten all their misgivings.
While people mourn,
Life resumes.
What has gone,
Will soon…be forgotten.

May the souls of all those who were devoured by the disastrous Tsunami rest in peace.
While we assure ourselves that they have been reunited with The Almighty.
