Prayers For Haiti

Haiti is in rubble today, quaking in the carnage Poor and rich share in the destruction Families lost, to be no more Orphaned children with no protector of their person Death lies in wait, along the crumpled streets A wailing is heard around the world for the loss of the capital Quaking rippled across the sea Come, come help the suffering!

The horror of this event is so disturbing. Why do earthquakes seem to take target on countries like Haiti which can least afford to rebuild after they strike. The images in your poem combined with those shown on TV evoke so much sadness, Doris. Let me add my prayers to yours in hope they will receive aid from other countries. God bless you. Love, Carolyn
