Best Typhoon Poems

Spring tide
pounding against
a rocky relationship

between the
new moon and
earth’s pie in the sky.

On an island
of one’s own making
in the mind —

like a whirlpool
when imagination
slips away

on a one-way
ticket to disaster —
no peace to find.

Stonewalling
rest with stress
and anxiety.

No sleep
on a tidal bore
without soporifics

in a
midnight typhoon
pawning fantasy.

So many cities
flattened by angry waves
wind-borne suffering.

Retrocognating
Devastating typhoon came
Sturdy than ever

Foretold its mighty
Long before hit the downhills
Flooding all over

Wandering chelas
Discerning how it may create
Learning to alter

Uniting mass wind
Resonates with  person's mind
Consciousness battle

Denser form of thoughts
Validates its energy
Chosen experience....

The strongest typhoon in the world today,
Devastated our beloved country,
Hit different places without mercy,
Now we feel his unexplained fury.

A strong wind makes the roof flying like papers,
Rainfalls turned roads like lakes and rivers,
Even houses and buildings are broken,
What have you done? Our lives are fallen.

In...

Through the storm surge and chaotic sky, 
the scale of destruction: hell on earth, 
towns flattened into a horrible wasteland, 
the deluge created ghost cities in a second, 
every night spent is a horror painted with gothic madness, 
and the survivors live in an unthinkable...

Tempestuous gales imbued the horizons about
Thunder and lightning charged the dense sky
Watching shards of a rainbow swiftly fleeing
Flashing blacks and greys permeates the eye

Forsooth the heavens were vexed with rage
Hearken to the voices of the gods this day
Echoing through the mountains and valleys alike
There was...

TYPHOON FROM RANGOON

A lazy typhoon from Rangoon
Ravaged  the seas in a balloon

He scuttled a ship
But let the cord slip

And had to relieve himself on the moon...

Great day in the morning
The storm hit without warning
Locked in our hotel in Kowloon
As outside raged a great Typhoon
It’s a long haul to get to Hong Kong
Just to be locked in a hotel all day long
They sandbagged up and blocked the front door
Thus, we could...

What's cha gonna do? 
I gonna do nothing
Gonna ride the wind 
Like a wave
Down the hurricane lane
Over the monsoon top
Roar over the desert valley
Dashing down the freeway
Packing my punch
Yeah, that's what I am going to do
What's cha gonna do?
Lol
Haha...

Mighty nature’s force mixing things around
Battering places in agitation
Landslides and flashfloods surge high from the ground
Causing damages, large devastation
High casualty rate --- worst destruction
Climate change creates more occurrences
Of this monstrous ghost leaving crises
But midst the strongest wind and heavy rain
Prayer saves us... typhoon’s strength decreases
So,...

Black sky blue moon
From the seashore comes typhoon
Fury grows above lagoon
At its zenith this afternoon

Soon
It will pass the nearby dune
Singing its horrific tune
Spreading magic of which teaspoon

It is enough to form a monster goon
That can swallow the very moon
Above the moorland stretches the typhoon
Its fury...

Death met at work, a months' long livestock voyage 
Appalling fate found forty men in ocean's contempt
Churned in days' worth of typhoon crazed torment
Upside down violence turned trapped crew to carnage 

Water walled onslaught slammed seafaring stronghold
Cattle float stark on dark ocean, hooves raised, bloated
Vets...
