Disaster In Japan

As the waves are crashing
The earth is thrashing
Violent winds and shakes
People searching for shelter

The earth is thrashing
While the ground around begins to crumble
People searching for shelter
As radiation fills the sky

While the ground around crumbles
Violent winds and shakes
As radiation fills the sky
While the waves are crashing

Such a tragedy for Japan. You did a nice job in this pantoum describing the movements of nature in this horrific event. Also heart moving for those who suffered and continue to suffer. ~ Ellen <3
