Hurricane Katrina

                                                                   by Eric L. Giese

Hurricane Katrina unleashed her wrath,
upon the lovely city of New Orleans.
It was the most natural devastation,
 the state of Louisiana had ever seen.
Water looking like used car motor oil.
Debris strewn as far as the eye could see.
Yet the people stayed to sweat and toil.
 To restore peace and harmony.
Just as a phoenix arises from its ashes,
the city of New Orleans will thrive once again.
It is not a matter of "if" my friends,
it is only a matter of when.
