This is a poem which I wrote when a disastrous earthquake occured on October 8 and the dreams of all those people were swept away.


The Disastrous Earthquake


On the freshening morning of October 8,
While some were in the bed,
with their blanket sheets tucked.
While some were in the school,
to make themselves look sincere and cool.
While some were in the office,
making the assistants a promise.
While some were on the phone,
Chatting and Gossiping in every tone.
While there were ideas being discussed,
to make the future bright.
While there were lamps being lit,
to give people light.
When the tremors gave a sudden shake,
And everyone was awake.
In a single second,
that left nothing behind.
Occured an earthquake killing people of every kind,
Everything was destroyed!
Everything was annoyed!
I pray thou Almighty!!
to save us from this entity!!!
