Tsunamis
By Ivy S
Published 27 September 2024
in depths where shadows dwell,
pressure builds, a silent swell
nature's fury, unseen force
a tremor shifts, it charts its course.
from ocean floor to surface high,
a wave is born beneath the sky.
it gathers strength with every mile
an ancient dance, a deadly trial
across the sea, it races fast
a warning sign that comes at last
the shoreline waits in a calm response
unaware of what nature knows
then crashing forth with thunderous might,
the tsunami strikes in a blinding light
cities tremble, structures fall
as water clams it's vengeful call.
yet from this chaos springs a new,
resilience found in hearts so true.
for though the waves may rise and roar,
hope will endure forever more
