Roaring anger through great seven seas <br />erupted as spiteful giant water columns <br />Swept off fragile nations to oceans <br />You! the most cruel catastrophe of all <br />Turned suburbs along seaboards to graves <br />Naked bodies decayed among their own rubbles <br />Once paradises changed to unlivable grounds <br />You! fateful miracle engulfed loving kith and kin <br />Scattered carcasses gave out foul reeks <br />Rescuers buried them in mass graves <br />Crows and foxes devoured untimely preys <br />You! mindless wonder created such horrible scenes <br />Orphanages filled by infants, kids and elders <br />None could erase their awful memories <br />Blockaded their glowing future for ages <br />You! mighty disaster made them stand still <br />Wonderful tales about mermaids and leviathans <br />skills and talents on gears and crafts <br />carried to sea among laments of fishing folks <br />You! heartless monster made mother Earth sadden<br /><br />Swarnapali Liyanage<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ode-to-tsunami/
