Tragedies

We plan and design and build our world

But everything bursts if nature unfurls.

Homes, schools, offices and streets

Everything hard built Nature easily deletes.

It swipes things out just on a whim

Even its creatures living within.

So many tragedies just in one day

And so many that follow without delay.

What is there to do? How to react?

So little we had was left intact.

But we don’t lose hope although so much is lost

We plan and design and protect at all cost.
