Night of Terror

Midnight came Rain was pouring down Thought it was ordinary Felt safe and sound. Heard those thunder Night of terror! Death came to houses With its utmost power. Waters rushing on floor All lights were off Trying to escape nightmare They never dreamed of. Lungs were filled of water Drowned lives to darkness Voices of people rage Fearful and helpless. Thousands died Never saw the morning light All I hear was cry From that horrendous night.

This is a very good piece, Lei. Well, maybe the 3rd line of the last verse, change that to stronger words. A little footnote below the poem would help too, to explain what inspired you to write the piece. I like the progressive way you told the story. Ate Kim :)
