Poem on Tsunami

The summer monsoon shines of the sea,

The waves go beyond each boat,

Tsunamis they call them,

Hard as they hit thee,

Sea that corrupts them all,

Noises and movements appear from all directions,

Vibrations reach them after each wave crash,

Sand castles laid down on each other,

Leaning over each other as they do,

Fragile they are, almost all will lean,

Following a path leaning toward the sea,

Each stop and look over each other,

Soon as they realized big waves cover over them,

Smashing hard, it flattens the castles,

Once made, forgotten by them.
