The name of the fifth part of the poem called: "What the thunder said" best reflects the meaning of this poem by T.S.Eliot, in my point of view. "What the thunder said" can be interpreted as a prediction of the consequences of a catastrophe. Although this poem tells about nature mainly, this catastrophe might not only be a physical one, but an emotional one based on how decadent our society has turned into. That is why, as soon as we see the picture, we can involve feelings such as: desolation, hopeless, loneliness, fear, destruction, suffering, etc.
Nevertheless, whenever any kind of catastrophe passes by, there are still hopeful feelings or thoughts like love, because love is what really moves and touches people for different several things, like loving among each other, the willing for doing things, for reconstructing, for accepting, etc.
A simmilar impression I had when I first saw the picture related to the poem. At first sight , it was full of dull colours and a very grey surrounding with nothing but garbage around, but then I saw those two people very close to each other with all that paper around in that free area which was maybe needed to reconstruct something or just to think with no distractions.
