Best Earthquakes Poems

Firstly, one has to take into account their scientific peers’ remarks,
As to the likely cause of how an Earthquake starts.
Some forums say it is caused by the shift in tectonic plates,
Others seem to doubt, seem to hesitate.
Some believe a government conspiracy of a machine that...

Earthquake erupting volcanoes,
And a summer snow storm,
Will anyone heed the warning,
The earth is continuing to warm.

We kill in the name of a deity,
An allegedly merciful being,
And very regrettably,
Don’t cherish the short time we have for living.

Grown men playing a child’s game,
For the obscenely big buck,
And...

Looked up falt lines on the internet
Found out information that I regret
Now I am shaking in my boots
Living life is not a party hoot

Be ready for at any time, quake
And life as we know it will take
A plunge into the past forsake
Be ready at all...

We're proud of things we're in control
Relaxed, at ease with daily cares.
We rule ourselves, no fear at all
As we juggle desires and money affairs.

We are not fazed by things that unnerve,
As long as these do not hit us home.
The wayward ones get what they deserve,
We...

What if I wasn't just someone standing here in front of you?
What if I played a different song with a different tune?
What if it was blackbird and I sang it real soft?
What would happen if I said it was my dads favorite song, 
and that...

Earthquakes strike, causing pain and fright,
Buildings shake, bringing death to life,
Hopes have been lost in the sad night,
Uncertain time, a time of strife.

The dreams crumble, homes are destroyed,
Many mourn for what they have lost,
Families grieve for what once joyed,
Memories shattered, future tossed.

Through the ruins, a...

What a horrifying two days people in California had,
I was shocked, my breath taken away, so very sad,
For all my poetry soup friends that live there or close,
Hope you are all safe, you must have all with fear froze,
Our prayers are with you, and you...

I put my lips to yours ever so slight
You pull me in closer with all of your might
Kissing me while you slip your hand under the cover
Fiddling around downtown, until you discover
An ocean, so beautiful you must take a peek
So you approach cautiously, to find...

My gaze lowers building to the ground
Multilayers empty landscapes, graffiti, murals.
Past buildings merge into present car parks. 
I currently buy my daughters shoes here in this
empty section. We eat here at this lovely restaurant, this fenced off parking rubble. I breakdown and cry outside the...

January twelfth two thousand and ten
October seventh two thousand  eighteen
and again August fourteenth,
two thousand and twenty one 
witnessed near annihilation and destruction 
of the Haitian nation, 
(especially courtesy first and third aforementioned)
whereby countless/ nameless individuals

crushed by humungous slabs of...

Why, in the land of earthquakes,
Must we suffer disregard 
As pale as lightning?
In a place designed to mingle,
Not connect,
I am a single band of light
Afraid of fading
Lest I meet the wet
Of human contact.
Were I to wane
As ebbing tides
Would I be any less deserving 
Of the...

Today is an another wobbly morning where I have opened my eyes to collect my pieces and recollect the transient peace of last night  which soon gave it's way to  a tentative traumatising earthquake and perhaps this morning I found myself lying in the epicentre...

The hush of the singing nightingales,
the raucous Owl cries,
the sway of the forest in obeisance to the angry wind,
the roaring thunder and blinding lightning,
all usher in the night of doom.

The generation altering night,
that marked the end of a great people
and like death brought the poor...
