For Mozambique
We've stared at their faces - desolate, devastated-
By flowing tears flooded.
Every image portrayed
Their lively dreams suddenly disappeared.
Huge catastrophe
Had abruptly fallen down!
Revolted? Not at all.
Filled with faith and courage
Crossing the skyline, and...
Grounds that had been damaged,
Brave teams struggled
To help those people in need.
Now they are rebuilding at every cost
A vast fertile land that had been lost!
(May 2009)
