The Upheaval.

The happiness on their face,
Then the terror of earthquakes,
Crust releasing energy creating seismic waves,
Shifting and bumping of tectonic plates.

The fall of buildings,
And the crack of historics,
The tear down of roads,
And the break down of floors.

The repeated tremors and aftershocks,
The hopes and beliefs were all lost,
Hundreds of people traumatised, un recovered,
Thousands of people died, unheard.

  1. To what ever heights
    we humans fly,
    we are still reminded;
    that nature’s play,
    plays its own way..!!
    Either nurturing..
    or devastating us..!!!!

  2. My heart goes out to the people in Nepal. Thank you for sharing this, Archita. This is just a way to let them know that although nature could be cruel at times but we all are there for them in whatever possible way we can be.
