Tsunami

You think you’ve got problems So huge and so great But then something happens And you realise its not to late It puts your problems in perspective They are minor compared to others A whole family suddenly wiped out A sea full of sisters and brothers The normally serene ocean The normally peaceful beach Ferocious sea sucked back in anger And pounced on those in reach Throwing its waved high Hauling its water ahead A path of mass destruction A sea of loved ones dead A woman kneels and weeps A loved one floating by The people united in their grief A sea of desolation they cry The ocean is their trade The ocean was their friend Their worst enemy it became With such a tragic end
