This is a true story! I had the vision of the Asian Tsunami 2004 that hit a large part of the peninsula! This happened on 24 early morning around 3am when I woke up in fear. I mentioned it to my family, particularly about the chennai bus that was caught in floods but people running spoke various languages including telugu! When the Tsunami hit two days later on the 26th I was completely dumb struck!!! I can never explain this. I have had similar visions with other events in my life, hence my unshakeable faith in God!!
Christmas dreams are of happy occasion,
of bells and colours, Santa and presents,
but floods, deluge I saw in my vision,
of floating buses and drifting corpses,
in panic people scattered for cover,
water swirled around ready to drown them,
trashing cars, collapsing city tower,
afloat I saw baskets, carts, dirt and scum,
I awoke in fear, I do not deny,
but what it all meant, I had not a clue!
Next day with family I shared my dream,
On boxing day, dream was reality,
I had foreseen the asian tsunami 2004!
stranger still are many languages I heard,
from all the regions the flood waters hit!
