Except damaging a few huts
Fani hit trees lull in range
rushed to Bangladesh from Bengal
damaged eight hundred fifty mud houses
uprooted trees plying vehicles
forty two thousand people evacuated
Digha,Manderwani and else
burst in rain with forty
kilometer wind storm
roamed and roared in Armbagh
Hoogly, Nadia and Murshidabad
headed to Bangladesh
treading a huntment in Beniatola Lane hit
five men in debris on fourth May 2019
Fani hit Odisha on May3rd
raining in torrent
in coastal lands of Andhra Pradesh
falling down ten thousand coconut trees
destroying horticulture crops
cell phone two hundred towers switched off
banana orchards in Vizianagram
flown off twenty one hundred
electric poles damaged
killed twelve men in Odisha
ten thousand people ravaged
and estranged evacuated lands
Fani soared high in northeast sky
rushed roaring turmoil
cracking in Bangla soil
resumed flights, electric, rail
rehabilitation agencies sending
water sachets, cylone-battered
people restoration to life
Fani in wrath hits Bangladesh
killing fifteen men in India
thirty six villages flooded
two thousand huts destroyed
storm killed six people on spots
falling trees and collapsing walls
lightening and thunder torrent
devastated coastal life of Banishanta
two hundred fifty families
marooned overnight washed away
straw huts some still submerged
ferries not in action
smaller waterways resumed operations
roaring and punching tremendous speed
seventy kilometers a hour
pour heavy rain and deluge emerged
submerging Sunderbans mangrove
filling water streams and rivers
downgraded Fani in Bangladesh
killed a toddler injured thirty people
in Noakhali ravaged people
moved in four thousand shelters
Fani was extreme in Puri
rushing at two hundred kilometer
in fury flown tin roofs uprooted trees
and electric poles snapped power lines
inundated holy land of Puri
with wide swathes of land submerged
God Jagnnath speechless saw all calamities
cruel Fani killed six men in Bhubsneshwar
fallen trees, blocked roads and electricity
restored timely life and cities
then evacuees tourists, people and villagers
shelter in schools and buildings
Fani in depression moved in Bangladesh
killed only twelve men in slow motion
It is wrath of God or curse
on humanity degree of devastation
and turmoil fluctuates coast to soil
innocent people lost lives
sinners, outlaws, perpetrators
insurgents, traitors mafia leaders survive.
