Advancement Verses Natural Disaster! Poem by Ramesh T A

There is calm before storm and peace after storm!
But if there is earthquake, tsunami and volcanic
Eruption one after the other, place will be surely
Destroyed and people will be buried alive in lump!

This is the reality we see now and then and feel
Pity about our science & technology development
That cannot say any warning and way to stop them
Making us still have fear as man was in the past!

Are we really advanced and developed by knowledge
We doubt when we see natural disasters bringing
Greatest tragedy to mankind reminding of their
Greediness and ignorance despite a lot of learning!

The vegetable of book cannot be useful for food;
Learning sans training and experience cannot be
Helpful to swim when boat is drowned by some bad
Misfortune if we feel proud of learning sans use!
