Hurricane Katrina Was Very Bad
By Irvin L. Rozier
This morning, August 31, 2005, I was watching the news on television (and on my computer). As I saw all the people greatly affected by this major Hurricane, the Lord moved on me to write this poem. I know the Lord controls everything, and I pray that many will turn to Him in their time of need. The Lord hears and answers prayers.
HURRICANE KATRINA WAS VERY BAD
Hurricane Katrina suddenly blossomed into a killer storm
The winds, waves, and storm surge were way above the norm
Alabama, Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi this storm did ravage
The force of the waters and wind were fierce and mighty savage
The levee around New Orleans suffered a major breach
The murky flood waters to the rooftops did quickly reach
Many people lost their lives, possessions and their home
Some folks sought refuge in the New Orleans Superdome
One day things were normal as people walked around
The next day debris and water covered the ground
I can only imagine the great flood of Noah's day
When upon the whole earth the flood waters did lay
Why did this major disaster happen you may ask
To recover from this ordeal will be a major task
I believe Katrina came to remind us of God's power
That can topple the world's most well built tower
The Lord has said that all things work together for good
People are helping each other in their neighborhood
Hurricane Katrina has greatly affected the USA
The Louisiana Governor declared August 31 as a day to pray
The Bible story of Job tells of his woe and grief
When everything was taken from him by that old thief
Job stated that the Lord gives and the Lord takes away
He believed that God would help him see a better day
The Lord God controls the times and the seasons
For Hurricane Katrina he had his divine reasons
I pray that many people to the Lord God would turn
And from Hurricane Katrina many lessons learn
