E M E R G E N C Y

What an earthly disaster
The rivers are red
The water keeps on rising
Trinidad and Tobago under water
Politician and Ministers these are your sons and daughters
Mankind need aid and helicopter to reach them faster
Cities are submerging
People are uniting
Humanity is surfacing
You can work much faster
After all you are the master
Why not take on the role of the nation pastor
Be the leader and wear the hat of a dedicated schoolmaster.

Thank you, I wrote this poem for my fellow Trinidadians who are currently facing an earthly disaster caused by flooding. I am hoping that this poem will touch the heart of those in authority as I believe the most important thing in our lifetime is how good we treat humanity.
