A Reminder of India's Tragedies
Thunderstorms are fierce,
bringing devastation to Nature and humans;
and such are the Monsoon rains of all seasons:
a reminder of India's tragedies.
Torrents from clouds form wild rivers,
and everything is subdued by their force,
it brings to mind the Biblical Deluge
when only a faithful family found refuge.
Where houses, squares, churches and trees once stood,
now there are floods drifting people and animals...
struggling to keep their heads above water;
many will experience horrible deaths without finding a road.
After they pass over the devastated region,
they will go the the next destination to cause more death
and incite survivors with ire and desperation...
then is God responsible, or is it Man who has no respect?
