California Earthquake

As an innocent day begins Many people heading to work, All of a sudden things shift The earth starts to jerk. While frightened you continue on Rocks fall blocking your way, You stop and scream out I dont need all this today. Your already running late Just to flustrated to see, Its an earthquake causing this After all what else can this be. Stepping carefully from your car You can now see it all, Just as your looking away Crashing your roof rocks fall. Startled yet very thankful You kneel down and pray, Thanking the good lord above For he saved your life today.
