Believe this is a rhyme poem/
The Water lives and rushes through
Mighty water flows as the earth breaks into pieces
earth’s rocks and trees surge as this asphalt land tears and releases
There is a sound of the earth moaning as she is torn apart with
winds and rains wrapped in her mouthy white foam
this new creature a living cyclone breaks apart the wood and clay
dikes and dams roar as she creates her wild storms
I wonder how often this has happened due to the hand of man
Is it Mother Earth sending her forces to destroy the greed and
neglect used for mankinds larger wealth and castle homes
was this once called Noahs flood, eons ago as an ark that roamed
through the roaring waters keeping her planet creatures living
now as then in her belly she fights for life and groans
crushing the living soils, rocks, human and animal bones
giving it back to the Mother to feed her earth as she intends
taking back her resources to begin it all again.
