[hometext] => In memory of someone I know, who lost a son who was married to a local king's daughter.
[bodytext] => It was the day after Christmas when Earth’s mighty shoulders shrugged together to transform time Lifting a big wave no matter the name shifting weight hidden beneath Indian Ocean Beaches Asian and African filled with children people relaxing and playing caressed by sun Too late for too many came the warning cry as water’s heavy hands slammed onto balmy white sands What call of destiny placed that fateful day tens of thousands in harm’s way Now tears of anguish flow around our Earthly sphere as loved ones cry for those held dear Over 100,000 lost many untold taken by eternal sea to final destiny We ponder and wonder the power of water its beauty, its glory its horror William E.

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. ©
