Natural Disasters Poems | Examples of Natural Disasters Poetry

Mountains made of waves tore the flesh from Mother Earth — flayed and flooding. The mud grieves beneath her, clogged with stagnant saline. She used to breathe — rivers ran wild and free, forests stood tall and proud. For she was once lush — verdant skin stretched over a trembling core, veins of sapphire seas pulsing with breath. But we carved into her with teeth...

It was cold and freezing in the city of Denver. A day in my life I will always remember. The sound of sirens wailing all around. The police had gathered near a body on the ground. A man with no home froze there during the night. It filled me with sadness to behold such a...

What if the orbiting earth were to unexpectedly run into a brick wall, speeding through the galaxy one night in the middle of Fall? Can you imagine the sounds of death, destruction, and annihilation, as Christchurch, New Zealand, crashes into the Atlanta Metro bus station? I don’t think that would be any fun at all! ...

You’ll kill your only dog because you don’t remember the sound of a bullet like him. The sea rises The sea consumes The sea doesn’t give back You’ll fear a never coming fire after you hear your cousin burnt alive and hide from the smoke you don’t inhale. The sea rises The sea consumes The sea doesn’t give back When you looked...

I gaze upon an opaque silver sky, Descending dewdrops, developing above the mustache maw. Ascending the nape to taste cherubim cry, Permeating petrichor, pervade the nasal in auspicious awe. Palpable pain of tactile taps Kissing canker sores and rainstorm rush. Radically rampaging, for its rapid relapse Rain, it's infinite, swirling fervor flush To drown by an inundated impound, A vehement, vicious, void that immersed, Wandering...

The floodwaters shimmer with opalescence in the morning sun The torrential rain finally comes to a halt In the stillness of it all floats the body of the banker’s son Six feet above-ground, his grave on the asphalt Birds stir cautiously above in the stripped-down trees Their intertwining voices weaving a fragile song A tattered American flag wavers in the cool...

This week is bleak, the birds don’t sing No sun, no rains, but greyness Even the churchbells didn’t ring Have they become atheists The bellman and the bearded dean And all the congregation? In times like this to breathe is sin No promise of salvation Can take away the truth it fakes And like a stubborn stem Grows through the slab, the truth condemns...

Throw an arrow, remember to sharpen it before it reaches it's end target Who is naïve enough to cross your parameters of closeness Capture this person whose mere sight you adore Aim at their legs, your prey will land face first on the floor Don't be scared, Don't you worry This is how love is meant...

The Day the Earth Shook Today a place called Haiti, weighs heavy on my mind. A small island Country State, where life has been unkind. With little shanty houses, no food to feed the young. War and unrest through the years, a trap to be unstrung. A seven-point earthquake struck, it rattled this small place. Shook...

Even on the darkest days when the odds are stacked heavily against us, we should never give up on hope. Quote By Poet. We were heading for better life to the new world on the sailing ship 'Athlone',   After about five weeks disaster struck, and the main mast and sails were lost. For two weeks we drifted aimlessly...
