Earthquake
no place left to live
home is a blue umbrella
tears stream down your face
tears fall on your child
held tightly against more loss
death lurks everywhere
Pamela Olson 5/16/08
In memory of those who have died,
in honor of those who are left.

Heartbreaking.
Thank you.
so much feeling. so sad.
nicely and timely captured…i especially liked “home is under a blue umbrella.” it is simply mind boggling the number of deaths already attributed to this earthquake. so much anguish and pain….my prayers are with them.
Yes, heartbreaking, thanks for putting this into words.
