Unexpected She Seemed!!!

The sun rose and the birds chirped in an unusual way, But no one knew what they did say; A busy day it would have been, Disquieting, lo... The future scene; Unexpected seemed the roaring waves, Rushing in and out the sandy paves; Death appeared a second near, What else would we humans fear?! Oh how loudly their innocence wept, Whilst all along the earth she crept. The emphatic mother…she opened her mouth wide, To call her children by her wavy side… She forced her way into the land, Sweeping hundreds of lives off the sand; Cries involved the scary dawn, Death assured a life time gone; She made me think, she made me fret, Life was now but a defensive threat. A mother she was to all around, Her children unaware of the loss abound; Though Water here never saved their lives, The sovereign goddess of “love” survives; Divinity here, she dint let die, But greeted her beloveds…with all, but a dreadful cry!!!
