Thunder pealed from heavens above
and the clouds a canopy drew,
the drenched trees vigorously swayed
as stronger, the gusty winds grew.
Rage, rage, O storm, blow away
the sorrows and her grieves
bring order through chaos,
as Gaia, in her anguish heaves.
Vent your dolour, unleash your fury
upon prodigal, profligate humanity,
that, the Earth's chastity has sullied,
Besmirched it with utter profanity.
Let your whistling winds vociferate
her plight; thunders, her wrath dispense
let your soothing raindrops nourish
the ailing Earth back to convalescence.

For aeons, humans have exploited the Earth's resources relentlessly in selfish persuits. Perhaps, storms are the manifestation of mother Earth's utter disgust towards humanity for this absolute blasphemy.
Mythological reference : Gaia: In Greek mythology, Gaia or Gaea is the goddess of creation, a personification of mother Earth.
