Storm and After

Under water drowned
Gone with the wind
Under rubble buried
And by pestilence effaced
Smitten by a ferocious storm
Civilizations go into oblivion!!

+++++++++++++++++++++

The sun is shining
The shoots are erupting
The flowers are blooming
The butterflies are twirling
The sad old earth 
Is brimming with mirth

I love this two part poem! I guess we need the storm to help grow and appreciate the wondrous beauty it creates. Very well written! Thank you for your kind comments. Love, Shar
