Time may never heal the pain So much sorrow shall remain Force of nature's raging face Moments gone without a trace Within one wave a thunderous sound Rushing through each death profound So many lost and washed away In disbelief this fateful day Death arriving with one gush Blinding fear and spirit crushed Who will find that place of peace Each day the sorrow does increase From all around the world we cry Asking God for reason Why? There's no reason and no rhyme For nature's fury fate designed Oh how sad our hearts now see The sorrow of humanity Within a place where we are one The wave is now the tears that run There beneath the calm the graves So many lost and so few saved Looking to the sky that's warm A clearing that has now been born Uniting all to turn that tide We will hold you up with pride Showing you that far away Someone here to share this day Through the many lives now lost Our spirits gathered at great cost For tears you cry are shared with all Great distance seems so very small The tide shall turn and bring the sun We'll stand with you with hearts as one Our prayers and love and spirit's flow Touched by sadness that you know And life will have a greater meaning For every moment that's defeating The tide will flow with love to share From all of us who truly care Within these days of tragedy Our love a constant homily Of prayer and sorrow that we feel We offer help through love's appeal And we shall know that we're the same With love and caring and the pain Feel the peace that comes your way The tide shall turn, we pray, we pray.   ~ Francine Pucillo ~ ©Copyright January 6, 2005

We ask that you make donations for this cause to reputable

charities. Directly to the charities themselves.  Please be wary of internet

charities on line that send e mails to tell you to send money for the

Tsunami victims. There are many e mails circulating asking us for

donations and they should be carefully scrutinized before responding.

It has been said that they take a majority of the money is kept

for themselves. It is best, they say, to go to places on the

internet directly to donate money for this cause. Such as Red Cross

or Save The Children or other organizations with their own websites.

I just want you to know that it is important that we try to give what we

can to help those who have suffered through this most horrendous

tragedy. Through a force of nature so many many lost.

Pray for those children who are lost through this but also pray

for the children who will become prey for those evil individuals

who will use this to snatch children up who are now orphaned to

make them slaves of sex and other atrocities. Please pray that

we can bring some normalcy back to those who were unfortunate

enough to go through this terrible terrible tragedy. We pray for the

family and friends of those lost, the mothers, fathers, sisters,

brothers, babies and all those loved ones lost to this rage of the sea.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
