The earth shook,
It heaved and trembled,
And mankind believed in God.
Author's Notes/Comments:
Composed on the 30th of October in Karachi, Pakistan. This was inspired by the terrible earthquake on the 8th of October, 2005, which destroyed most of Azad Kashmir, Punjab and adjoining areas. It is amazing that men and women turn to God Almighty at times of disasters and calamities.
