Hurricane Haikus

Ocean depression
Clouds pulled in by low pressure
Suck inside moisture.

Hurricane is born
Eye follows the track blindly
The trade wind decides.

Distant shore attracts
Hurricane rushes lands hard
With windstorm and rains.

High waves surge inland
Storm flattens things on the way
Rains flood the lowland.

Homeless people stand
On gloom and devastation
Future uncertain.

Trail of hurricane
Furrows through the battered lives
Nature does its job.

Depression in life
Turmoil lands as hurricane
The mind does its job.
