酷我-北美枫

The Rumblings
(for the people; victims & survivors of the Beichuan county earthquake, Sichuan province, China, 2008)
- James R. Quinn

Dreaded rumblings return again
now an echo of their sweet names
faces imprinted on our minds
a joy and love that will remain

So far removed from this pain
so far removed from this hell
Love, my love, I call your name
an emptiness like coldness comes,
fills every pore, sadness reigns

A barrenness is all around
joy lies crushed beneath debris
hope is buried here, I know
Remember...remember…
their face and names

Reasons why that matter not
for life is life, to then pass on
beneath debris - each can describe
a hope for goodness left behind
Tomorrow for some, another day

chance to see, and feel, and touch
and the stories we'll gladly tell,
Love's efforts left behind, so much
within our memory’s hearts to meld
