Geetha Jayakumar - Outburst!

Who can withstand nature's fury
When cloudburst in anger
Normally lasts a few minutes
But the heavy downpour it brings
Flooding may be its result.
With the clearing of trees
The roots lost its grip on soil.
The soil went on draining down.
The land could not withstand the heavy rainfall
It went on sliding down
Killing many innocent lives
Pulling many lives down under debris.

Still many heart beating with open eyes wide
Waiting for rescue team
To arrive and save their lives.
They will fight for their lives
Till the last breathe they live.

Rescued ones feels proud for
they had a heroic comeback
Seeing death face to face.
Dear ones, make sure
Stay away from epidemics
Which can bust anytime in unhygienic conditions!
