This is my gift to the Japanese who have suffered.
"The Tears of a Samurai"-by Danny Wayne Evans

Pray now, thou, for the samurai,
Huddled in the midst of nuclear dark.
Afar off, I hear the geisha girls cry,
As the land is swept back into the sea.
Oh, ancient people!
Dry now thy tears that stream
Down porcelain faces;
Thy rising sun shall soon rise again.
