Stink was the smell of the atmosphere <br />And silent cries are all that you hear. <br />This typhoon brought heavy destruction <br />But there’s a sure hope for our nation. <br />We shall rise and possess our new sun! <br />Let us all do the best that we can! <br />We shall always wear our clean sandals! <br />This typhoon will never hinder us.<br /><br />Obed dela Cruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-typhoon/
