There are rains copious
floods extreme in a part.
There be drought severe
driest ever in another part.
There is no moderation as such
the one overtakes the other
a phenomenon not in touch
over the bygones in demeanour
A storm and a quake sudden
rocks the world with velocity
the earth succumbs to the burden
quivers and collapses instantly
the status of the land is unpredictable
a thrive is seen greatly on one side beautifully
a ruin on the other casts a mark indelible
rare to find a juxtaposition in keen
wonder at the erratic nature of Nature
