Tsunami

In a matter of seconds it came in a wave, taking thousands with it to an early grave. More people dead than still walking around, soul-less beings with eyes to the ground. You've told us all of a government so strong, so prove to us now where your heart belongs, In a beautiful nation seeds sown of your own, the land of the free where no man walks alone. But if you are able turn your head and your heart, to a once beautiful nation now torn apart. So put down your guns and your looking glass smiles, let all ammunition fall silent a while, for whatever your colour nationality or creed, whatever religion in which you believe, turn together and for once realise, we are a united world who see through same eyes. So now how will you stand and raise your glass, in a commemorative toast to times of the past? when laid out before you for all to see, is the choice you must make for the future to be. No price tag we own could ever compare to the height of the wealth we must now learn to share. One million dollars per day per war, now surely Mr Bush you could afford more, than eighteen days worth of horror and pain, to a nation that otherwise may not stand again. Show us the man we've heard much about, show us the nation first to help out. For after all in your own "fair" words not just president, but that of the world.
