Houses, buildings
Shook & tumbled down
like playing cards
razing
to the ground
Many lives stopped
to live, thereafter.
A threat,
A disaster
When Mother Earth
shook her belly,
it was her gesture
to show her mood swings.
Prayers held for the souls departed.
The massive earthquake with its epicenter at Pokhra, Nepal, damaged lives and instilled fear in people with recurring quakes and aftershocks which continued for months. It was a disaster for Nepal and its neighbouring countries. People believe that it was the wrath by Mother earth, a way of showing her reluctance to human, who acts against the wishes of nature.

The weird thing is, sometimes it IS Mother Earth's fault. But certainly not because she's displeased. It's just she's gotta blow off steam some how, just like the rest of us! Great poem.
