Tragedy Poem by Daniel Bernard Kelleher
Tragedy
No one even bothered
No one even cared
No one saw the danger
No one even watched
The beech full of children
The sun high in the sky
A beautiful summers day
Tragedy was on the way
A child was reported missing
At once the search began
Lifeguards combed the water
Converging on one spot
An eerie silence descended
Along the beech that day
The missing child was located
Taken from the water
Medics fought to revive her
Alas it was to late
A family lost their daughter
Tragically in a horrendous way

So heartfelt, every parents nightmare, I saw a distraught mother at a beach last year who alerted the lifeguards saying her three children had vanished in the water, thank God they were found safe, they'd been playing with other children. Well done Dan
I don't know if age has anything to do with it but every time I go to the beach I seem to see the danger and how easy it is for tragedy to happen
