A Stormy Day
A normal sunny day begins
Black clouds have just rolled in
The sun will hide behind them
Signs of a storm to come
With winds so strong, they begin
Churning the leaves about
communication of all goes out
Signs of a storm to come
We rush for cover to protect
Things we love and care for
We beg and plead in total fear
Signs of a storm are near
It’s almost scary
Day becomes night
Flowers close, birds disappear
Signs of a storm in sight
The rain and wind are here
We sit and wait till silence comes
We open the door and see its destruction
Signs of a storm gone by
