Future Or Past Tragic Event?
As I lay sleeping
I had a dream,
Of either a past tragic event
Or a future Tsunami.
I saw a wave hit
Washed houses out,
I had a good
Reason to pout.
This dream scared me
As it did many others,
I walk into a house
Where I saw children with their mother.
The water started seeping
Its way under the door,
Relationships and families gone
Waves hit hearts to the core.
Windows were blown out
And I saw devastation around,
Surrounded by rubble
I was dumfound.
Boats going by, as I waded
Through water up to my hips,
My heart was torn in two
People already going through hardships.
Was this a past tragic event
Or a future to come?
I don't really know
It was extremely fearsome.

I had a dream about a Tsunami hitting the other side of the world. Low and behold, today, I read on the internet opening page, that an earthquake hit Sumatra, near Indonesia. So, was this a dream? Or was it giving me a warning of a future event?
