Flood
TB Chhetri
Khudunabari
To cause flood is the natural law,
But untimely occurring is fatal flaw.
It is recommendable to come
That takes away impurities some.
Vague fact flowing water never retreat
Departed and host again meet.
Debris and clays sediment in the lowlands,
Return only distilled psyche to settle in plains.
Clouds got eclipsed to reach Jomolhari
That required regenerating there early.
People are scattered hither and thither
Families were segregated losing many pairs.
Hundred thousands are homeless
Some were exiled in hopelessness.
Tsunami victims were cared with solutions
But Druk victims were left in pollutions.
Flood of 90s was so fatal
No elsewhere good to settle.
Heretics opted for the eldorado,
Some still in attempt become desperado.
Green hope hanging in the westerly,
That might escort clouds to meet easterly.
Relievers must prevent another flood,
That might again drain all same blood.
Returnees are harmless to cause again,
But good neighbours put encumbrance.
Debris are so precious gems,
Some west winds tend to carry, it seems.
Little to leave for the native,
But reluctant to be taken by the relative.
Built a domestic wall very high
That impedes wind to shower on leeward side.
