The Rescue!

The floors quivered, and the walls cracked

Right beneath, a whole family had collapsed

.

The turbulence continued, taking away the crowd

Few resonated cries, others were heard loud

.

Moments later, there was complete standstill

Survivors ran, fetching others from the debris

.

Kids of all ages tried hard to crawl out

As leftover dirt fell inside out

.

Those seen first were brought out fast

The rescued ones saw others depart

.

The only sounds heard were

Me, He, She, There and Here

.

But all this made one thing very clear,

When its about life, every soul says,

“What’s in a Name? Nothing!”

.
