The Storm

This morning I awoke
Seeing nothing but devastation
The storm came last night
Now so much is broke.

It arrived without warning
Behind dark ominous clouds
The wind picked up quickly
And the rain began pouring.

Lightning spidering across the sky
Weaving an intricate web of light
Illuminating the darkness
And everything else insight.

The thunder began bellowing
Rocking the whole house
Booming so loudly
But it was only the beginning.

The sirens began to sound
As the clouds swirled in the sky
Picking up everything
And throwing it around.

Down the twister came
Taking on a random path.
Destroying everything in its way
Leaving a terrible aftermath.

Tall buildings now are rubble.
Power lines down.
Its hard to believe
This is our town.

Many without homes
No where to go
What do they do now
That the storm gave its show?

Dont start picking up yet
For more is on the way
Maybe if we cross our fingers
It will all just go away.
