It seems the nature reclaims itself and reminds us that we are not the masters of this realm.

These lines: " It seems that the plush life / In the silhouette of this trauma / Is all in vain..." seem to contrast with your assertion that we should live life to its fullest. Reason: The "plush life" speaks to me of the greedy living of the rich as the poor live in their shadow, lives of misery. I live in the margin between the tsunami and the plush life... so much work to be done. <br /><br />Still, the fatalistic viewpoint is understandable, given your feelings about that horrific tragedy. All in all, eloquently told and rich in internal rhyme. In short, beautiful. Glad you stopped by our site!
