ENDORSEMENT

Having known and worked with the author of this literary undertaking, it is necessary for me to display my feelings and experience regarding this work. He is a Muslim from Sudan; I am a Muslim from The Maldives. We understand the Will of Almighty Allah, and we express our belief in Islam in a literary manner. When Tsunami commenced in southeast Asia passing through southwest and on to the east coast of Africa, the world felt this mighty force and will remember it for many seasons. The author felt the need to express his feelings through the use of the pen, and he did so in his recent work, TSUNAMI THE GREAT LESSON OF THE 21ST CENTURY. May Almighty Allah bless and help him produce other feelings from his pen.

INTRODUCING TSUNAMI—

FIRST POEM

It has been said, We haven’t heard about it for years.

Ask the ocean where is it underneath?

The ocean seems to have kept it a secret.

It became a mystery to think where is its where about?

The oceans neighbors and friends went to sleep.

Native neighbors woke up and went to work.

Old, giant unpredictable tsunami suddenly woke up.

It took all the ocean’s neighbors by big surprise.

Innocent neighbors could do nothing.

It is impossible to stand in the way of Tsunami.

Sadly to see them surrendering helplessly dead!

Poor people of the great ocean screamed heard and unheard faintly.

It is an unpredictable behavior of nature underneath?

Nature is free to move and leave.

It amazed us worldwide.

It emerged as powerful walls of high, speedy waves.

Tsunami, in a blink of an eye, swept people and earth.

Neighbors and their life, long time developments were

drowned in no time to count the breath

As if they’re sacred victims of giant uprising Tsunami!

They were countless.

Thousands of helpless men were swept dead by waves.

Mischievous nature breathed and released energies.

Great mother earth, our compassionate planet kept moving.

In Indian Ocean areas, it was a mourning morning.

It was a sad Sunday morning in Indian Oceans Regions.

All over the Indian Ocean, it sang a sad song.

Whatever feelings and thoughts we have;

we can hardly describe what giant tsunami had caused.

Whatever we hold nature responsible for its sudden behavior;

nature is free to express itself.

Is nature a mysterious message to understand?

Words can’t describe natural Tsunami in details.

We’ve just a glimpse, a thought of what nature is.

Eyewitnesses and adventuring cameras might ask amazingly,

What a great giant is the Tsunami?

Cameras in unusual events are gifts to give us facts.

Tsunami’s intelligence must have seen them at a glance.

It recognized them.

Captioned in intelligent eyes are not in details.

They are high walls of killing waves.

They’re terrible turbo blowing winds.

Beasts of oceans must have gone away from the waves.

Powerfully, they swept lands and islands.

In contrast, they conquered countries coasts.

They asked, What speed did Tsunami have?

It amazed scientists and high tech.

Nature cannot be conquered and it cannot be trusted.

Naturally, nature is a friend of mankind.

Is life developed from dust?

Is it a hard question to ask?

Earth must be everything to us.

Is Tsunami an intelligent wake of thoughts?

It is hard to blame nature.

It is hard to blame man.

They are both hard cover books.

They are both lessons of life to learn and trust.

Tsunami, the great giant, seemed to have returned to sleep once more in dark dusts of the Indian Oceans sands.

What wisdom is behind Tsunami to kill thousands of poor people massively?

It destroyed their economy, life and beautiful lands.

It is hard the Tsunami sudden attack.

It is hard families, relatives and friends are separated apart.

Worldwide almost every day, we experience them.

What have we learned from natures sudden invasion?

Forces of Nature are kinds of heavy equipments iron and stones can’t stand.

They remind us to seek safety and be ready to repair and build aftermath.

These forces are stone, hard realities in achieving assignments.

We always, try be aware of them.

For assurance and comfort cameras bring them live facts.

Intelligent eyes of Tsunami saw them in actions.

Caring cameras came carrying people live and dead.

What will a world be without communications?

Tsunami is the twentieth century outstanding news.

We wonder if we can speak with ocean, alien Tsunami.

How did it emerge so powerful from the ocean underneath?

In seconds, it highlighted world headlines.

Save them was a first speechless world news.

It was already reported, they are drowned lands!

They are dead in less than a second.

Death is not a distance from a human being.

It is closer to us than sound and speech.

It is a natural principle of faith.

Sometimes, how smart we are; we are speechless if not for feelings

and thoughts.

Courageous cameramen came from nowhere

They told worldwide news, Some did not make it.

Some made it by margin.

Thousands had been trapped by killer waves.

Walls of waves became graves.

How brave are we! Luck may save us.

It was a very sad scene to hear them screaming.

They were separated and driven away.

Land and sky could not help them.

It is hard wisdom to see a friend disappearing.

We shall live and learn life is both comfort and pain.

Till tomorrow, Insha-Allah we shall have another day—a new life to

entertain.

We heard and read them say, We tried to give them hands.

It should be impossible, but Tsunami is flying low, extending in lands

by iron hands of winds and waves.

It was a speedy, express, executive mission.

Sending hands to save them is humane feeling.

Aftermath many helpful hands came fast to the islands.

It became a serious matter of cooperation and communication.

These are the old compassionate means for humanity to understand.

World media worded these means and wired them faster than wind

can fly worldwide.

They seem to sound in world satellites, "We send you more feelings

and thoughts."

They don’t know who they are.

It is humanities call of how far we are.

Those who survived were overwhelmed to see so many hands at home

to help.

Faces were signed sorrow and sad.

Natives are brave to live by ocean, storms, hurricanes and waves.

God save! next time it might be the worse.

They learned from past experiences Insha-Allah they might survive.

Indian Ocean witnessed a hard birth of a sad song.

We saw them drowned instantly.

They became thousands and thousands of dead bodies.

Indian Oceans strong waves washed them into islands.

It is so hard and inhumane to see an entire family separated and

engulfed by mighty, strong waves.

For decades past, ocean waves seemed to hate to come ashore and

disturb islanders.

They understand faithfully that the nature of persons, winds, and

waves have no hands but to behave as many sad stories reveal.

They are about to break hearts of sadness and facts.

A baby, a mother, and a father are drowned dead.

Before night, high, wall waves take helpless lives.

Lucky ones have room amidst safety.

Sadness, sailing silently by winds, says nothing.

It is all like breaking a heart-blowing mind.

Whole families are washed ashore drowned dead.

Songs are composed signed sadness.

It is a small world for spreading feelings fast.

The Indian Ocean did not aggress on lives and lands.
