Hearts are heavy Souls are weary Eyes are blurry This sad refrain touches the heart of everyone who reads this poem! What a tragic incident! Death coming in the form of flood and fire....! Double monsters appearing suddenly and taking the lives of innocents! So many close ones lost their lives! So Ghana weeps for her departed heroes and heroines! But from this crematorium, the country will re emerge like a phoenix bird..... this is what Ghana hopes! A touching write, Abossey!
Oh my god that was very tragic, even hard to imagine as it's sends chills down the spine man with numbness. God bless and may provides all people who suffered strength.
What a heart wrenching incident, what makes me dumb. My heart goes for those helpless people who gathered there to save their lives where they did not know even that it was a grave yard, patiently waiting for them! ! It's a befitting tribute for those lost lives by remembering them through this poignant penning Thank you..
A sorrowful tale of tragedy, well articulated and subtly penned in poetic diction. It was a horrendous accident that caused national and international mourning. May the souls of the departed rest in peace. A good piece indeed.
Oh my gosh. Feel like crying flood of tears. I like your poem poet
Dear Allotey, my prayers are with you and the people of Ghana and the poor souls who had to suffer this disaster. You have penned a heart breaking account of pain, suffering, trial and helplessness. God be with you all in this difficult time. I too share your belief that all will be well as Ghana Hopes and Ghana will rise again- Insha-Allah (with God's will) .
This is heart shearing, the way you portray it. And of course the hope something we Nepalese having faced the earthquake disaster can certainly relate to. Thank you for sharing.
Allotey, I also feel like mourning with you, i can feel that pain in my veins. I am truly so sorry for that loss of your country, may God console your hearts. A good write.
They tried! ! Hope against hope, They tried! To find a place to stride. But No! - - No! - - No place to hide; Fire - - Fire- - Fire on every side.........really a pathetic scene. Read your poet's note and came to know that flood of fire took the lives of 200 souls. I am so sorry for this. Your depiction on Flood of Flame' is heart touching and sadness. Many thanks for sharing.........10
I like the structure of the poem and the message expressed therein.
This poem really touched my heart, my thoughts and prayers go out to Ghana. God Bless.
The good people of Ghana thank you for your concern.... God bless you
Wonderful words that are full of hope in this creative and compelling cry for a hurting nation!
They died! ! ! With the muse of the incident that occurred in Accra. Nice work.
Very sad. Let us fight tragedy, together we can put pain and sorrow down.
A very tragic story. Water and fire are two elements which can not be controlled easily. if the two go beyond control then only God can save. You have sketched very true scenario with your ink. My condolences are with people of Ghana.May God give them strength to come over the crisis. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! What a tragic and devastating story of the loss of humanity. Water and fire are not supposed to mix, they are opposites! What an anomaly this was! A natural disaster combined with man's fuel. What are the odds of this happening? All of these poor souls must surely have gone straight to heaven. Your poem is a great tribute to their lives. Thank you for sharing it. RoseAnn
Death provokes thought. Souls motivate mind to gain life with safety. This is a thought provoking poem brilliantly penned.10
