Poem
Being a storm chaser I look out for all kinds of weather, with one particular severe thunderstorm hitting a town about 2 hours drive away from where I live…By the time I was half way there the weather station called me to inform me to brace myself when I get to the town because of the devastation and that I'd be driving in remnants of the storm. They were right because the sky just opened up with rain, hail and straight line winds hitting my van from all directions…the tornado threat was just a watch and not a warning anymore so I did continue to be on the lookout. By the time I got to the town alls I could see in the sky was a beautiful rainbow from one side of the small town to the other. Driving closer and getting into the interior of the town was a different story as I could see the destruction of what was left of the small town from the tornado. It was leveled. Thank God everyone in town went to the tornado shelter and survived I'm happy to say. After spending several hours there helping out as much as I could with the Red Cross I got in my vehicle to drive to the next town and get a room for the night so I could go back in the morning to help some more. That night in the hotel room I couldn't get the beautiful rainbow out of mind and how it camouflaged the violent storm that had just been there moments before… 3-22-17
