Devastating

DEVASTATING

                          Storm is brewing, horrifying whirling
                         vortex vibrant mischievous miscreant.
                          Culprit cyclone carves creates calamity. 
                         Lightning flashes, thunder roars.
                         Clouds burst, rains thrash in torrents.

                          Violent vigorous rigorous storm turns notorious.
                         Mountains are washed with avalanche
                    Rocks grumbling, stones pebbles rumbling tumbling down           
                        Land is flooded, rivers running rushing in full brim.

                  Sky is tormented on tremendous terrible thrust   
                      of strong devastating storm,
             threatening disaster with ceaseless shower in cats and dogs. 

                         Sea waves are swollen hissing growling
                         Ocean is outrageous bubbling in wrath
                        My passion oozes, blazes to outburst.
                         Urge out of control can’t be restrained.
                        It yearns to play with strength of storm
