Happy 2006

Dear 2006,

Free this world
from earthly quakes and seismic shakes,
from fiery volcanoes and blizzards of snow.

Free this world
from ruthless floods and brutal bloodsheds,
from dreadful droughts and awful blackouts.

Free this world,
from twister’s swoon and tornado’s doom,
from engulfing seas and merciless tsunamis.

Free this world,
from storms frightening and deathly lightening,
from raging fires and all of nature’s ire.

Looking forward to a disaster free year,
we welcome you.
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

P.S. Though this was written just after Tsunami, I was prompted to repost after reading one of Ramya's poems here.

  5. very beautifully written understanding natures fury
    would like to add for now..

    Free this world
    from mans unearthly doings and treacherous goings
    from political gambling and unwanted rambling

    Free this world
    form deadly diseases and eating epidemics
    from choking pennilessness and extravagance

    Free this world
    from greed and raging anger
    from lust and forces of all evil
