Nature's Fury

Wildly the gale blows over the turbulent ocean whipping up the waves into towering mountains that crash down shattering everything in their path screaming out at the world, hostile and venomous Nothing in its path stood a chance not from this devil storm it raged onwards now a hurricane leaving devastation behind huge waves rushing inland uprooting all as they past through swelling back briefly, then thundering on, oblivious to the damage Huge trees, hundreds of years old lie dying, flooding everywhere slowly the angry winds abate, becoming gentle like lover's touch caressing kissing as if to say sorry for all the damage and strife quiet for a while until once again the seas war dragons re-awake Setting forth on another battle royal, not a care for what is left behind just terrible life changing damage as Mother Nature roars out her rage plundering us and what we hold most dear to gain her deadly revenge by cutting us down to size using all her fearsome powers to teach us No master doth Nature have to tell her nay, futile to try to stop her she rages on destroying as she passes, no way to harness this goddess earthquakes, tremors, volcano's; all these and much more at her command she will not cease not until we learn to respect her and nurture her planet

My dear friend, you have worded both sides effect-affect. Perhaps you told the truth in the last line, I believe too. Beautiful observation in to the nature's action and reactions. Lovely done. Loved always, bl
