Nature and Human Juxtaposed

Deep in your peaceful mind, confusion starts. Like volcanic eruption. Deep down the depths, of the dark blue sea. Your heart and soul collide. In Conflict, Causing a rift. Like the tectonic plates, that collide and shift. Disturbances are brewing inside yourself Concealed by your demeanour. Smile, that camouflages your despair. Like the tsunsmi that originates, below the unfathomable depths. She cannot be seen or heard, on the surface of the calm sea. when all avenues you expend, to solution find. And hope narrows down. You garner all your strength peacefully. When the depths of ocean, recedes close to land. She gathers all her strength, and sucks the sea along the shore. You use all your vocal, physical means to express. The pain, your anguish, and your hidden desire. Exploding in a frenzy, that Impacts humanity. The tsunsmi she rises, to great heights, Rearing her mighty head. Rushing to the shore, Destroying all that's in her path. Conquering land masses. Changing the contours of the coast. Causing loss of life. Having vociferously convinced humanity, Regarding your wishes and needs. You have victoriously conquered, those who opposed your plea. Wisdom prevails ,You carry them with you. Occasionally there could be casualties. Having expended all her energy, she receeds back to her rightful state. Taking along the spoils of her fury. Nature and humanity are entwined in a way. Nature expresses her displeasure, not because she is outraged. Its only when the balance, of nature is disturbed. Her energies so expended, creating natural calamities. As for the human casualties? It's humans who encroached, Into natures way and space. Human calamities are caused by the imbalance of mind, heart and soul. Matter of intellectual bankruptcy. The thinking mind remains static. Does not evolve with the changing times. Nature she does not have this gift. She can only do what she does best. Accumulate and expend, energies in her natural state.
