Environment 14 - The Angry Rains And The Pink Rose
Rating: ★4.7
I am a little pink Rose!
I bloomed to see
This beautiful world,
To enjoy the monsoon,
The cool touch of the rains,
The sweet dew drops on my petals,
The gleaming, shining white pearls,
The magical showers of the heaven!
But Alas! When the monsoon arrived,
The rains poured down in great anger,
The rains pounded the earth, trees and hills, without sympathy,
The rains just devoured the houses and people without any empathy!
What wrong have I done to be blown away by the fiery, rainy storm?
What sin have I committed to be torn and crushed into the deep earth?
I bloomed to see
This beautiful world,
To enjoy the monsoon,
The cool touch of the rains,
The sweet dew drops on my petals,
The gleaming, shining white pearls,
The magical showers of the heaven!
But Alas! When the monsoon arrived,
The rains poured down in great anger,
The rains pounded the earth, trees and hills, without sympathy,
The rains just devoured the houses and people without any empathy!
What wrong have I done to be blown away by the fiery, rainy storm?
What sin have I committed to be torn and crushed into the deep earth?

A beautiful poem revealing a beautiful heart--we often talk about the damage to people and their property but how many of us think of the little beauties of nature that are destroyed. Top marks, my friend

What sin have I committed to be torn and crushed into the deep earth? A million dollar question. A engrossing expression of a little pink Rose before angry rain. A wonderful nature poem. Wish you and your beloved family HNY 2021. For this wonderful poem.5 stars
