WHEN THE FLOODS CAME

What to do first when the floods came 
No time to consider who was to blame 
Father was brave and mother cried 
Our house sinking starting to subside 

Sandbags didn't help when the floods came
All of us taking part in the salvation game
What to save first proved so very hard 
Pocessions destroyed ,battered and scarred 

Didn't see my neighbours when the floods came 
No time for goodbyes such a terrible shame
One box taken and my family on our way 
We will always remember this fateful day
