Nature again shows its anger,
making the entire world tremble.
Throwing out the ocean in anger,
covering its path islands and islanders.
Waves as high as a tallest building,
cars and houses in its sway it is carrying.
A catastrophe for a small nation,
fires and blasts are the culmination.
We as humans can only stand and watch,
offering prayers for those caught in the aftermath.
Governments move to give help in cash and kind,
the nuclear dust floating around the world they mind.
All awaken to the terror of the nature's fury,
realizing that we are but like leaves very puny.
My heart filled prayers go to those facing the onslaught,
a second disaster for them after the nuclear holocaust.

yes, true it was indeed an awful time... japan is on its way to recovery.
What an awful time that was. I hope that Japan's recovery has made great progress by now. though full recovery will be a long process. God bless.
thank you..i wrote this after the tsunami in Japan...just watching the waves and the sea coming in makes one realise how small we really are when nature is angry....
Natural Hiroshima of Fukushima though less toll on lives...well written and articulated poetry...a combined and exquisite report
