Mother Nature’s Dilemma
Mother Nature felt like crying but she knew all too fully well that she had to keep her emotions in check, or did she have to?
…
Keeping her emotions in check or not keeping them in check seemed to be what caused problems with her so much that she was constantly lost in the labyrinth of making that choice. Sometimes she felt she should express them as soon as they came - but she remembered that she was the mother and it wouldn’t be a good example to her children if she was always crying and expressing herself – which was why other times which were the majority of times, she felt she should bottle them up and pray that somehow they disappeared before the next time she lost her anger came.

At any given point in time, there were humans and even animals coupled with Papa Earths problems annoying her. If only Papa Earth knew that all this pollutions were harmful to him also he would ask the creator to stop them from happening but he was a complete ignoramus.
Mother Nature assessed her different reactions and what effects they had on her children. She always kept her anger in check and held it in but it always found its way out but on different scales at different times.
Sometimes her holding in game ended as soon as it started and this resulted in short harsh tears more known to the humans as rains. She would just let everything out at this time and then after that it would pass.
Sometimes she held in for a prolonged period of time but not too long and it resulted in the same short harsh tears with a twist. This time after she had cried the short period, she would continue to sob between breaths – little tears that won’t stop falling as she reeled from the anger and this would result in constant drizzling maybe up to 6 hours that would keep the poor human children away. The plants seemed to enjoy this drizzling

During a time of disaster, the world responds in some way. The answer to this response is a factor of this earth known as nature. The poem and story, "There Will Come Soft Rains" both express that if the human population were eradicated in a disaster, nature would not care. "Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree if mankind perished utterly."
Sarah K. Castle, in her scientific fiction “The Mutant Stag at Horn Creek” develops the story to tell the nature-culture hybrids and its effect on human-kind and other creatures. The story sets in one location called “Horn Creek” and the main character “Sue” a park ranger and a narrator of the story. The author shows the effect of human meddling with natures at the very beginning of the story. A “Grand Canyon” which is the story plays had been mined and it starts to be closed for visitors and Horn Creek was one of them. In this fiction author is more about to say that human kind intervention in nature is the reason for the natural world disaster.
“It [suffering] immunized your body and your soul, and that was why she ignored us kids when we cried. ‘Fussing over children who cry only encourages them’, she told us. ‘That’s positive reinforcement for a negative behavior’” (Walls 28). Children, especially infants, cry as a means of communication.

I leaned over and breathed heavy. Mr.Wychers says as he slips his water bottle back into his bag, ‘’I'll take the lead this time,’’ Not long after that, a soft drizzle started. Little droplets of water started to fall from the sky, we started to pick up speed. We darted through the condo's and sped towards the neighborhood. The rain now was a total downpour, a stream of the cold liquid poured down from the clouds.
On the planet Venus, it has been raining for seven years, causing nothing but sadness to the nine year old students living there. “A thousand forests had been crushed under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again”(Bradbury 1). When Bradbury puts the words “crushed again,” in the text, it symbolizes how much the rain affected the lives of those living on Venus. Just like how the trees were getting crushed, all the childrens dreams of experiencing summer were crushed by the rain, making the rain the evil figure of the story. But, as soon as the sun comes out, the children are jubilant and, “They were running and turning their faces up to the sky and feeling the sun on their cheeks like a warm iron”(Bradbury 3).
The things the bad mind creates; apes, cliffs, high mountains, and various reptiles are all created to harm human nature or in direct opposition of human beings themselves (24). Humans will always care what happens to nature because they are intertwined together. However, nature does not have to care for humans. It can be chaotic and crazy and still thrive. Humans would die if nature was not the way it is.
The struggle of man versus nature long has dwelt on the consciousness of humanity. Is man an equal to his environment? Can the elements be conquered, or only endured? We constantly find ourselves facing these questions along with a myriad of others that cause us to think, where do we fit? These questions, crying for a response, are debated, studied, and portrayed in both Jack London’s “
The only woman in the world who will still cradle you in her arms even if you've stabbed her loving heart is your mother. The short story “Teenage Wasteland” by Anne Tyler is about guilt and reveals mother’s feelings towards her children. A loving mother will feel guilty for anything that happens to her children, and even for that how they feel. Mothers is the person who cares the most about her child. The story “Teenage Wasteland” tells about a common situation many families experience: a misunderstood child creates problems to his parents, not by fault, but because he feels unwanted.
In many poems, poets use nature as a metaphor for human life. In "Storm Warnings" by Adrienne Rich, she uses an approaching storm as a metaphor for an emotional storm inside herself. Although, there is a literal meaning of the poem. There really is an incoming storm. Rich uses structure, specific detail, and imagery to convey the literal and metaphorical meanings of the poem.
“Report to Wordsworth” by Boey Kim Cheng and “Lament” by Gillian Clarke are the two poems I am exploring in this essay, specifically on how the common theme of human destruction of nature is presented. In “Report to Wordsworth”, Cheng explores the damage of nature caused by humans and man’s reckless attitude towards this. In “Lament”, the idea of the damage of oceans from the Gulf War is explored. In “Report to Wordsworth”, Boey Kim Cheng explores the theme of human destruction of nature as a response to William Wordsworth, an romantic poet who celebrated nature’s beauty in his poetry.
