The Battle Rages On

Hurricanes in the North Atlantic Our backs up against her squalls Time and time she impacts against us Her rightful power thrall We have flooding down under in Australia Tsunami's from a very recent past Ice Caps melting in places of wonderment Her patience now must be aghast Snow storms in virginal havoc lay Deep pile carpets she lays on her grounds Tornado alley, goes beyond seasonal quest The battle rages on http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/nature-13.php

Man versus nature is the most interesting of battles, James. We have no control over the tornados, tsunamis or hurricanes. All we can do is struggle to survive them. Well said! Love, Carolyn

I so agree with you. This is nature's revenge. I like the way you have beautifully portrayed it.
