Poetic Verses

The Day Of Rain

This was something that happen  a long time
But the events are always fresh in my mind
A weather system so  strange and  unsuspecting
Bought along a lot of rain and this was so surprising

Though thunder rolled and lightning flashed in the early  morning
Giving a hint and sort of sounding a sort of warning
No one paid heed  and so paid the unfortunate penalty
Because what followed was a sort of catastrophe.

The way those rain drops struck the ground
So loudly as though it was sounding a warning all around
Every crack and crevice that held water was overflowing
This was a sort of  indication the trouble was brewing.

A torrent of water's broke its caption  with a great force
Taking boulders as it move in a downward course
The added material give it some power that it easily
Move anything in it path and  took them into the sea

On the roads the water was like a river's flow
Flooding vehicles  and  they stalled and could not go
Houses too were flooded and it was obvious for sure
There was water flowing in at the windows and through each door.

The earth too moved like shifting sand
Moving housed off the  foundation
Then to add insult to injury so seriously
There was a loss of water and electricity

It was not a very good sight to see
Places surrounded by water so completely
Being trapped in their home not knowing what to do
Until someone with a boat came and effect a rescue.

One thing  that all should understand
The water also destroyed the  homes of the vermin
See them swimming around to survive and on anything congregated
Well one can be certain there were lots of thing contaminated.

Many people were forced to use the designated shelter
However the said would have rather be home this would have been better
Saying they will hold on until there was a measure of safety
Because apart from looting another issue was privacy.
