[hometext] => Inspired by the Tsunami's....
[bodytext] => A wave from fate struck today Leaving a wake of death and destruction along the way Destruction and carnage like we have never seen Not in reality..nor in our worst dreams It is unimaginable the things that we see In beautiful places where many of us have longed to be We watched as paradise was truly lost How could fate have demanded such a cost? Over 100,000 souls who exist no more And the moans of millions too loud to ignore Waves so high it is beyond the imagination It washed away dreams and memories with much devastation My own soul now has a permanent rip And my mind and eyes try hard to grip The sight of bodies everywhere I want to turn away and yet...I stare And the children..too many children So many children that I cannot begin To know why they had to part Before their tender young lives had began to start How could a distaster like this come to be In a world filled with preventive technology Above all else it really does show When it is your time...you have to go I know one thing that is defintely true Just as I am sure that you know it too And that is not to take life for granted, and don't live too fast We must live each and every day like it is our last If you love someone it is not enough that they should know it Tell them every day, hold them and show it In every way We never know when it is the end And to die without saying our 'I love you's'..now that is a sin [comments] => 4 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 39 [informant] => summerwine [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
