W-Japan-An Island Nation of Resilience and Fortitude
A
Chain
lofty
Reaction
Felt around the earth
By the cataclysmic earthquake
Hard to tell the earth from the sky at Shishiory river
Converting the part of island nation of Japan into a floating cemetery.
It was powerful enough to shift the earth on its axis one parking space to the east
To make their nation whole after tsunami
The Japanese need resilience
And the fortitude,
They have deep
Reserves
Of
Both.
It
Is
The only
Country on
The planet with a
Successful tsunami alert
300 sensors scattered in territory waters
What is more, the Japanese people do listen, when the government says to evacuate.
