CHAOS AND CONFUSION


CHAOS AND CONFUSION
All around is chaos
Confusion
Devastation
Destruction
Whirling
Swirling
Like a tornado
Destroying everything in its path
Sheltering
Can be hard
Nowhere safe and sound
Panic
Pandemonium
The oceans
Whipping up a torrent
Waves pounding
Thrashing
Hammering
Flooding
Gushing
Surging
In towards the land
Devastation
Destruction
Can be seen
Is there nowhere safe?
On this Mother Earths land?
Is this her anger?
Her outrage
Our calling
Our wakeup call
I feel stranded
Isolated
Marooned whilst the storm rages on 
And on all around
Here we both are soaking
Drenched
Cold and damp
Watching and waiting
For this raging storm
To abate

  1. Great picture. I like the poem, too. I'm not much for poetry unless they are rhyming or like this one. Easy to read.
