From the Clouds

From the clouds come glittering rays of light,
raising hopes and making wet lands to dry,
Time for floods to go,which lessen their plight,
Beam which brings succor and makes smiles comply,
Flowers bloom and skins tanned from rays of~sky.

Yet from the clouds come thunder,sparks and fire,
consuming forest and spreading with ease,
houses engulfed as smoke rises higher,
Fire fighters try to control this disease
Destruction of ecosystem must freeze.

Life is a significant twist my friend...it changes ever so often. The rain, the sunshine then natural disaster...what can we do? just let nature takes it course.
