Beauty and Storms of the Hills

The hills shine like sparkling jewels,
full of nature’s beauty all around.
The people here live simple lives,
their ways mixed with calm and serenity.

The trees, the rocks, and the bushes grow,
with farmland stretching wide and far.
The hard work of the people shows,
alongside nature’s lovely art.

All different people live as one
in the green, lush land they call home.
Tourists come and feel the peace,
with soft winds as they roam.
The breeze that moves the trees
is nature’s gift, like sunlight’s gold.

The rain that makes the green trees grow
It is a blessing from the sky above.
Most times, it brings the earth great joy,
but sometimes rain can scare us all.

Once, a village faced great fear
as rain and landslides crashed and roared.
The mud trapped people in its path
and left them helpless, feeling lost.

It was a sad and rainy night, a tragic time that one forgot.
Nature’s beauty can sometimes change
and bring a dark and painful thought.
