a poem

found this untitled poem written by my friend benny on his blog...abt the tsunami...since related ot my project...i shall post it...(haha...more like he ask me to help him "broadcast")...

...
Underneath the clear blue waters,
Void of fish and life,
The earth shook, the ground split,
.
Like pebble dropped in the pond,
Forming a ripple of shock,
The water rise, its force gathering,
.
In the deep seas of life,
The fishes knew and swam hard,
Yet in desperation, cornered, perished.
.
Across the immense ocean,
The fishmen marvel in their catch,
In their joy, oblivious of doom,
.
Then came the giant waves,
Full of wrath and anger,
Swept the bewildered, the ignorant
.
Merciless, the face of nature,
Yet misunderstood, not heartless,
For its warnings are but unheeded,
.
In the desolation and destruction,
It is still not all darkness,
For light is eternal in faith and hope,
.
As the cries of despair echoed,
Despair had all but won,
For there is compassion and love,
.
From strangers, and the merciful,
Amidst chaos, thus a treasure was found,
In human nature, truly heartening
