Christchurch Earthquake

Black is the darkness in death.

Blue is the tears dripping of faces.

Brown is the rubble of homes.

Gray is the colour of sadness.

 Blue is the colour of sadness.
Red is the colour of bodies.
Green is the colour of sick people.
Black is the colour of the dark night.
Purple is the colour of lost.
Pink is the colour of being upset.
White is the colour of dead bodies.

 People were dyeing there was blood on the floor.
People were crying now everyone is poor.
There was blood on the ground people were running around.

By Caleb

 

I am worried more will die and still you ask why.
I feel sad about the ones that passed on just hope in the future this will pass on.
I feel helpless that I can’t help because we are far away
From where the earthquake hit.
I feel so sad for the ones who lost their family I wish them the best.

By Rebman
 

I fell so sorry for them because they have got no house.
I feel scared because people have lost their lives.
I feel terrified that it happened in Christchurch AGAIN!
I am frightened that it might again in Christchurch.
I feel sad that people have lost their families.
I am upset for the people that got injured.

By Masiva 

 

Waiting helplessly while trapped under buildings and bricks.
Crying loud and nervous because you don’t know if you’re going to die or survive.
People were crushed and injured from the buildings and houses.
People are sad, tired very upset about there family and friends.

I feel sorry about Christchurch and what happened to the people and families and hope it won’t happen again.
 I feel sad that it happened to us but we don’t know but let’s hope it doesn’t but I am worried that it will come and destroy Auckland where we live.

Feeling bad because I can’t go and save people.
Feeling sad for people who have lost their family.
Feel sorry for those who passed away. 
I feel helpless because I can’t help people.
I feel upset and horrible about what happened to the passed away people.
I feel hopeless and scared for the trapped people. 
By Mckayla

 

I feel blue for the cracks in the ground.
I feel red for the people who are stuck in the buildings.
I feel for the earthquake crashing down like lightning.
I feel violet for the darkness in the cracks.
I feel white for the people in hospital.

By Jordan

 

I feel helpless because Christchurch is so far away.
It’s sad because there have been a lot of deaths and I don’t know if my uncles okay.
It’s horrifying because the houses might look a little bit okay but they might fall on you if you go inside.
I’m scared because an earthquake can happen in Auckland right now.

By James

 

Sad because people have died.
Scared because it might happen again.
Upset because people are trying to find their friends and family.
Helpless because I can’t do any thing.
Destroyed houses, buildings and shops.
Hurt people cut bones people dead.
Crying because their not allowed going in and helping their families and friends.

Good luck Christchurch

People are worried and devastated some have legs that are amputated they are scared of earthquakes but aftershocks yet to come.
Brocken houses blue people sadness to your eyes do not want to die.

 

I feel upset because my mum’s friend got stuck.
They feel lost because they have no water no house and no food.
I feel sad because most of my mums’ friends have kids.
My mum’s friends have been injured.
I feel scared because the people that are trapped and homeless.
I feel frightened because heaps of people have died.
I hope that everybody is okay.
I feel helpless because I don’t have a big enough house for my mum’s friends to live in.

Black is the darkness of the earthquake.
I feel sad because people have died but that is not fair.
But why did it happen.
Red is blood of darkness and pain.

Some people have lost their power and their kids and family and friends and houses.

On a sad Tuesday there was a earthquake.
A lot of people died but a few survived.
People were still dyeing some people were crying.
There was heaps of blood on the ground people were running around.

I feel blue because I am really sad of the yellow scared faces.
Black dead bodies with red all over them.
Blue water all around them because of the earthquakes.

Its cold and black everywhere people are injured and covered in blood.
As they try to pick up mounds of bricks.
To uncover bleeding people.
Families are scared and crying and trying to see through the brown clouds of dust.
They just hope that there isn’t any more to come.

By Amy

 

People are upset because they have lost their homes some people have even lost their families.
I feel scared that it might happen again.
I am sad because they have to sleep on the floor.
Even cardboard and some people are trapped and still alive.
I feel helpless because were here and their over there.
We can help fundraise for the homes and a place to sleep.
