LIKE A TERROR ATTACK, THE NATURE

Like a terror attack
hitting a vulnerable target
at an unexpected moment
claiming the lives of
hundreds of innocent persons
devastating properties
worth lakhs of rupees
a calamity
like floods, landslides, even tsunamis
snatching away the
lives of a number of civilians
irrespective of caste,
creed or religion
at an unexpected moment
inundating vast areas
swallowing trees, huts
and buildings and heritage sites
making a mess of everything 
the only difference being
if one is a terror attack
the other is due to nature’s fury.
