No Warning!

There was no warning as he lay

on just an ordinary day.

Late morning no rush to get up

the wife had risen early.

To make breakfast and coffee

relax take it easy.

 

A loud rumble a husbands shout

and a desperate plea!

Running to the bedroom door

hanging on one hinge.

Now a hole where a bed had been

no floor to be seen!

 

Family living nearby came running

to an unbelievable scene.

The brother jumping in the sink hole

nothing he could do!

Dismayed at the deep cavern below

then it started to grow!

 

The ground being so porous nobody knew

when the next could be due!

 

An ongoing tragedy with no end in sight!

 

The Foureyed Poet.
