11 March 11 (Japan Earthquake, 2011)

Titanic Disaster
With trembling Richter

Shifting plates
At such a rate

Ripples in the Pacific running to the coast

Devoured Japan’s Honshu making it its host

                    

Epicenter Miyagi, Richter trembled nine

Harbour wave tsunami, rose 12 metre high

World’s 5^th worst disaster since 19 hundred

Alas, biggest in Nippon and east coast shredded

                     

Fire and water
Floating terror

None left to be rescued when Natori ripped

Almost died poor Sendai when badly whipped

With fire on water and missing trains

Human corpses and tears rained              

                    
        
When buildings afloat, ships on road

Airplanes mangled, airports mowed

Airplanes and cars
Amid debris

Dead is dead, but living now dread

Of aftershocks and nuclear threats

                      

Vanished villages, several reactors hissing

Fukushima explodes, ‘Riku’s half town missing

Fore shocks 35, thereafter one two five

Iwanuma’s SOS, Kesennuma’s cries

                    

                  
Worldwide alert, thousands dead and hurt

Tragic we
On rooftop see

When Honshu shoved with wobbling earth

Battered thus Isle with nature’s fury

Engraved in history, when inward came sea

                            

Was it 11 March 11 or 11 Mars 11?

Let's pray those souls are on way to heaven

Ocean overflows
And endless woes
