(An ode to torrential rains which has been prevalent for last few days in Southern India. May everyone find peace, strength and solace amidst the chaos)

Torrential Rains,

Uprooted Trees,

Violent wind,

Plundered habitats,

Homeless lives,

Mouths to feed,

Penury's triumph,

Abandoned child,

Deafening thunder,

Eyes wide awake,

Praying souls,

Water playing havoc,

Death on the prowl,

Helpless people,

Bewildered and baffled,

Destruction abundant,

Grieving hearts,

Gory sights,

Demon of disaster,

Raising his hood,

Guffawing greedily,

Its "Nature's Fury"!!
