The day was warm the sky was blue
Like any other day
The beach was calm and lovely
As the waters churned in play.

Little did anyone know
How angry that churn might be
Until the giant wave came
And made the people flee.

Death and destruction
Has left an angry path
Laughing faces yesterday
Has felt the waters wrath.

Lives lost forever
In a grave so wet and cold
Children's lives beginning
Many young and many old.

I know we should not question
Gods work from up above
Our prayer is He meets them
With open arms of love.

We know there is a reason
When things happen as they do
Let the precious people of Tsunami know
Our prayers go out to you.
