Nature the Destroyer

Raging tornadoes
devastate the entire land
destroying cities

Raging huricanes
plundering oceans and land
natures agony

Tsunami monster
Indian Ocean graveyard
deadly disaster

I love the poem HOWEVER I strongly disagree with nature being that aggressive but more elegant and soothing, as within nature there are remedies to diseases. There are exquisite smells and picturesque views and everything that makes humans- humans and not robots nature is beautiful! I think the poem is great but see the good side of nature
