Abstract: Our entire human civilization is said to have originated on the banks of rivers. It continues to provide us with food, water and livelihood. The same rivers today are black and muddy. We live in a world where culture has superimposed nature causing errands of natural disasters. Natural disasters occur as a result of human greed and exploitation. A River by A. K. Ramanujan and The Ghaghra in Spate by Keki N. Daruwalla are often compared poems about rivers in deluge. The paper aims to look at these poems from an ecological perspective.
