The Cause Of Tsunamis Poem by Alan Bruce Thompson

The Cause Of Tsunamis



The tsunami rushed ashore, killing thousands in its wake,
No early warning system? That costs money for heaven's sake!

Our seismologists observed the opening crack in the seafloor,
What forces of nature could cause such death and force such awe?

The tectonic plates fracture under their own load?
They fall apart down there in the devil's abode.

Our seisomologists saw something that gave me a scare,
Since nuclear weapons testing has been banned in the air.

With their ray tracing through the lithosphere,
Showed that undersea nuclear explosions had taken place here.

Since no army or government claims responsibility for this fear
We can only assume that terrorists or aliens are at work here.
