about the Titanic tragedy...

Titanic


The ship of dreams was well applauded
Now it’s nearly half-way rotted
A tragedy that stood the test of time
Rests on the ocean floor with rust and grime
Memories scattered in the water below
An experience that we’ll never know
A shipwreck that shook the world
And the hearts of boys and girls
The souls of children, women, and men
Echo in the waters where they should have never been
Her brilliance was misjudged by man, and marveled by all
Until she took a dive to her final fall
She struck the berg with an ironic order
Before the souls could reach the border
1500 lost 700 saved
no doubt this wreck would alter the ways
of the confidence and thinking of man
but still we have yet to understand
death in such a tragic way
which was never forgotten, even today.
