Tsunami Haiku

receding tide. . .
darkened sea with
much debris



Note:
I live in Hawaii and wanted to let everyone know that our Tsunami warning has been 
lifted and we were blessed with no damage. Our prayers go out to those in Chile.

That is wonderful news, Connie! While we are deeply saddened by the tragedy that struck Chili, I was dismayed when I heard the earthquake had set off tsunamis headed in your direction. Thank goodness you have been spared. Blessings, Carolyn
