Yes, a very awful event with incredible loss and cost. Well written Haiku. I pray for those who have lost so much. Best wishes, Caroline.

There seem to be so many natural disasters occurring right now. I can only wonder where the next strike will take place, Gert. Indeed, our world grieves for the victims. Terrific senryu! Love, Carolyn
