(Dedicated to now suffering Haitian people) <br /> <br />This was not a joke or a comedy, <br />It was a real human's tragedy... <br />Not a scene coming straight from Hollywood, <br />It was the time when the world still stood... <br /> <br />I felt astonished and sad that I did cry, <br />To hold my tears, I did really try... <br />When listening the news in my TV set, <br />I could not believe it, my TV I reset.. <br /> <br />Panic, chaos, screaming and total confusion, <br />Stopped the human evolution... <br />Bodies, mixed with blood and debris <br />Manifested in the devastated streets... <br /> <br />Without wasting time, the helping hands <br />From all over the globe try to remove the sands <br />From those who my still be alive, <br />And those wandering around <br />Desperate looking for food not found <br />Or the precious water soon to arrive... <br /> <br />They are also part of the human race, <br />A wounded child with a dirty face... <br />Hungry and tired looking for his mom, <br />Happy to find the open arms of Sargent Tom... <br />Like drinking a bitter and cold drink <br />Things in life that twice make you think... <br /> <br /> <br />©All Rights Reserved-2010<br /><br />Romeo Della Valle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-human-s-tragedy/
