Nature rises like a terminator in action
Rivers, gutters, puddles hastens the flow
Beating rocks , thumping waters speak
Renewed energy awaken passion fierce
The clouds go nasty and burst free
Galloping waters swell with pride ,
Amazing gut devour one and all
Statues in temples and churches go
Creatures, homes , and motors whole
Make paper boats of fallen trees
Tumble into streams to become driftwood
Like the Midas touch turned his girl to metal
Sacks of cement now turned to stone
Ransack homes and stored grains destroy
What comes across, it pulls in its folds
A game of warfare, soaks in blood, all that is dry
The life giving source turns for the kill
Threaten the powers of the good and the holy
For this demeaning drama of a devil’s dance
Fathom scale of massive losses borne
Nature’s calamity is wretched and wrong
Shamelessly bearing like a fragile witch
Helpless and exposed, squirming its sores
Mother nature always bearing and giving
She turns unruly when much bantered
We see not the pain within her heart so hurt
Like lines by William Congreve in ‘The mourning Bride’
“Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned
Hell has no fury like a woman scorned”

and the message...coming clear...destructive force
of nature cannot be stopped...
You have an amazing way with words J.K....
This is an epic poem which conveys the power of water to cause such havoc and destruction...

Mother truly seems to be on quite a rampage these days, and I hope She calms down soon.
