Rising Against Mother Nature
Katie Gayton
When disaster cries, we fall
Into a deep dark jungle of the unknown
So many worries, spread like a disease
There is no cure, but to be cursed by the spell
Though a few small brave people
Take nightmares in their stride
The younger population
Are ready for an adventure
No matter the disaster, however dangerous it may be
These young tough people are seen to be free
So maybe we should take a leaf from their book
Be ready, be prepared and no one can scare us.
Mother nature, however, is out to break us
Suck us up into her core
Blow us out into space
Her insides bubble, ready to munch us up
Ready to destroy us a chunk at a time
But maybe she doesn’t know
What humans are known for
Because we can’t be defeated as easily as she thinks
For our world keeps on growing
In size and in strength
And by working together and staying strong
No disaster can break us any more.
