Katrina’s killer crushing blows
Consumed the skies and earth below
And Rita’ ruthless relentless ways
Ravaged hope till none remains
Now shattered lives look to the east
Will yet more come or will they cease
Heartlessly God’s mistress Nature screams
“The earth is mine! Mine to redeem!”
Will Stan or Tammy come to pass?
Or Vince and Wilma their shadow cast?
Oh how the devastation soars
The warning signs we still ignore.
Love Tinka
Excellently metered and rhymed, there are powerful lessons in this one. Brings to mind, "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature."
