Disturbing images, <br />Ravaged faces. <br /> <br />Pain and grief, <br />Loss and disbelief. <br /> <br />Hopeless and helpless, <br />No sense to the madness. <br /> <br />Millions swept <br />By furious waves. <br /> <br />Ministers flew <br />To take an aerial view. <br /> <br />And assess <br />The damage. <br /> <br />And appeal to the nation <br />To make liberal donations. <br /> <br />To raise funds for relief <br />Of the bereaved <br /> <br />Which never reach <br />Those in need. <br /> <br />Greed of man doesn’t lose any opportunity, <br />To make fortune out of a calamity. <br /> <br />Funds are sabotaged, <br />These hapless people still have courage, <br /> <br />Out of the rubble they rise bravely <br />From scratch rebuild their lives stoically.<br /><br />Mamta Agarwal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nature-s-fury-2/
