Both "Ozymandias" and "There Will Come Soft Rains" depict nature as powerful and ruthless in opposition to mankind, as further explained below.
Both works also offer a critique of human behavior, especially of our pride and capacity for destruction.
The poem "Ozymandias" is about the ruins of an ancient city. Everyone who lived in that city is now gone, and even the buildings they once inhabited have turned to dust. Nature has taken over everything, leaving behind a single statue to remind us of a king, Ozymandias, who thought his greatness would last forever.
The short story "There Will Come Soft Rains" is also about a city that has been destroyed by a nuclear bomb. The only house remaining there is finally destroyed by nature.
Both works depict nature as powerful and ruthless. Man is nothing compared to the forces of nature. Yet, man thinks of himself as strong, powerful, great. And, lost in his own pride and sense of self-importance, man destroys the very mankind to which he belongs.
